Mint Tea and Other Stories Summary

Mint Tea and Other Stories by Christine Craig

Unconventional love, social injustice, dangerous economics- these are the subject of Christine Craig's short stories. She tenderly evokes the women's experiences of Jamaica, criss crossing between generations and places, disregarding conventions, and weaving new insights into a complex place and a complex people. Craig brings to this first collection a sharp, unsentimental eye, a flair for language, and a subtle sense of irony.

Christine Craig now lives in the U.S.
