Words from those touched by Dr. Laman’s work

The Hero of Fern Gully delivers a fascinating glimpse of another side of Jamaican island life. You will be transported to historic Fern Gully, and the leafy, meandering hills that shoulder Lovers Leap in St. Elizabeth. You will celebrate Christmas in the rustic countryside of Woodside: feel Mattie’s struggles in building her dream home, be drawn to the treats, the delights of Miss Bailey’s Cold Supper Shop, and see tourists through the eyes of an innkeeper.

This treasure trove of stories celebrates ordinary happenings around ordinary people with an extraordinary legacy.

"Reveals a social and economic study of privilege of the upper classes, the tenuous status of women and those who prey on them, colorism, the separation of families caused by immigration, and infidelity of lovers, Ruby’s acceptance of her man “reeking of another woman’s odor”, and the deep intersection of Christianity and Obeah. These vices and inequities form the foundation of the stories that still make us laugh... Make sure you read the Author’s Note that precedes each short story, that is where, in my re-view, the real story lies.
