This novel “Unity in Humor” seeks to present more than merely a collection of very short stories interlinked by a common narrator. Though it is written in the form of individual character sketches, the entire settings are filled with the unity of humor in the lives of the communities that are portrayed in this novel.
Within the title of this novel, there is a projection that when a society has not defined its goals, individuals are less inclined to achieve fulfillment in life.
The humorous stories surrounding these characters are presented because the author believes that living in this island of Barbados is made less stressful due to its citizens’ sense of humor.
