Opis

Derive (pronounced Dreevay) is French for drift, go off course, or gallivant. At nineteen, Jennylynd James drifted for the first time from her home in Trinidad and Tobago, to attend university abroad. It was the start of a lifelong passion for travel and adventure. This expatriate's quest to find balance between the need for adventure and the desire to return home is described in a witty collection of stories of nostalgia and mad risk-taking. With a mix of humour and colloquial sayings of Trinidad and Tobago, the reader is drawn into the lifestyle and culture of this Caribbean melting pot. Jennylynd lives in Toronto, Canada where she has embraced a lifestyle of art, writing and music."
