Golden Heart
Set in Nassau, Bahamas, these short stories are simple tales of good-hearted people, who struggle to live in a world where bad things happen. The author, Michael Wells, was born with cerebral palsy which means he has difficulty controlling his limbs and using his voice. But he can operate a computer by means of a laser dot stuck on his forehead which picks out letters on an online keyboard. These books help him make a living under incredibly difficult circumstances. Each story features a protagonist in a wheelchair, along with a life message. Michael's writing is poignant in some parts, humorous in others and romantic in most. He lets us see parts of the everyday life of a person with a disability that able-bodied people might not know about.

Funky Nassau
“Timothy Rommen has done it again. After the success of his earlier award-winning study of gospel music in Trinidad and the ethics of style, Rommen turns his attention to the complex and conflicted history of music in the Bahamas.

In Funky Nassau, Timothy Rommen confirms his status as one of the best scholars of Caribbean music today.” —Michael Largey, author of Vodou Nation: Haitian Art Music and Cultural Nationalism "This sensit...
