If elements of the marvellous recur in Caribbean novels, it’s not because people live fairytale lives. Sometimes the only way to present the intricacy of the Caribbean past and present is through myth and folklore, the supernatural and the speculative. Hosted by Shivanee Ramlochan with Ayanna Lloyd Banwo, author of When We Were Birds; Karen Lord, author of Unravelling and Pauline Melville, author of The Master of Chao.
