About this audiobook
"A man oughta be able to walk home drunk without some damn fool running him off the road, you know."
The hub of life in the islands is the local rum shop, and though living in the Windward Islands in the Caribbean might be a little different than other places, maybe move at a slower place, the problems of life are pretty much the same as anywhere else. Still, it's a different kind of world. And here is a short story that peeks inside that world.

Ed Teja
Ed Teja is a lifelong writer and denizen of the margins of the world. A former magazine editor and boat bum, after years living rather out of the mainstream, he lurks around rural New Mexico writing stories are about the people he meets and places he knows. Stories that reach into the odd corners of the world that often disappear into the margins, and tell of the amazing, often strange, people that inhabit those places.
