For anyone that has ever been to Jamaica, lived there or wants to go this book is a must read. It captures the essence of the Jamaican mentality, way of life and humor as no other book has done. Although written in 1987 it is no less apt today than it was then proving that change in Jamaica moves not at just a back pace but an almost comatose one.The authors illustrate that one of the most endearing features of the Jamaican psyche is the inate ability of virtually every Jamaican to be able to poke fun at themselves and their country and get away with it.
