"The lingering smell of wet mould hung in the air, and under the glow of the streetlight, her once shapely form was now a series of lumps and bumps clad in dirty old rags that dragged along the floor."FROM THE AUTHOR OF UNNATURAL ENCOUNTERS: ONLY IN TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO…Island Tales, a series of twenty-seven folklore stories featuring supernatural beings and characters from across the Caribbean region. Characters who have no doubt haunted the dreams and nightmares and maybe even lives of most Caribbean-born people. Stand among the watchful army of pop-culture statues in “The Sculptor” or join the mob against Blue, the thieving shopkeeper in “Tipping the Scales”. Stroll along the riverbanks with Nerida in “Water Baby” or maybe just kick back and enjoy a special feature article in the Sunday newspaper entitled “Endless Cycle”. But, however you choose to spend your time here, just be sure to remember one thing: always cast a wary eye behind you, lest you end up like poor Mr. Gundy in “Piggy Back Rides for Mr. Gundy”.
