In this engaging collection of stories, essays and poems, author George Major takes us to the island of Eleuthera, his home in the Bahamas. His first tale relates the story of an e-mail fantasy come to fruition when Angela, the girl he has been corresponding with via the Internet, joins him for a two-week romantic adventure on Eleuthera and Nassau. As George tours the islands with his California beauty, he rediscovers and comes to a new appreciation of the enchanting secluded beaches of pink sand, the distinctive cuisine and warm-hearted people of his native land, as he truly falls in love with the girl with whom he shares the journey. Other stories describe the anxiety he feels when another girlfriend leaves him to attend Beauty College, and the pleasure he finds in a sensuous encounter with a passing tourist. Poems evoke the refreshing tang of Jabim (the intensely flavorful drink made from key limes), the luxurious delight of jasmine-scented nights, bustling marketplaces and the startling beauty of the natural landscape. As a businessman well acquainted with the complex world beyond island vistas, in thoughtful essays Mr. Major offers his insights on the Bahamas' place in the new world economy. Writing in an energetic, accessible style, his richly textured narratives take the reader on a stimulating trip to the exotic land that he so loves.
