Autorenporträt
Desmond Tomlinson, together with his siblings, was raised by his father In Jamaica. As a Rastafarian, the daily life he knew included marijuana, meditation, and chants. Shortly after his seventh birthday, his life was radically transformed when the authorities transferred him to an orphanage and eventually into foster homes. This set a series of events in motion, some tragic, that he recounts in his four-volume memoir. Today, Desmond lives with his family in the United States of America.
