My debut prose book is part memoir, part history, part auto-ethnography, and 100% storytelling. It's about my people's relationship to land, and examines ways of living with plants, herbs, trees, and the earth. The story uses my own life as a way of understanding my people's relationship with land and thereby moves between my birthplace of Coffee Grove in Jamaica and Yorkshire, England, where I now live.
