Episode 13 | BCLF Short Fiction Story Contest 2019 (Part 3) | Summer's End - Lisa J. La Touche BCLF Cocoa Pod

    • Books

In my writing I explore realistic themes, grounded in Caribbean life, culture and folklore. I am interested in relationships - familial, romantic or platonic - my stories lean towards relationships among women, mostly. I explore relationships with our people's history and I like giving a voice to our rich landscape, as if nature is a character. Summer's End examines the relationship of a little girl with her grandmother, family and place. It is told from the little girl's POV.
