Born in the capital city of Kingston in the Island of Jamaica in the early 1970’s. Author Craig Simpson was born in an Island that had acquired independence from Great Britain less than ten years before his birth. ’The Root Cause’ opens a door and allows us to analyse the racial dynamics of a nation whose national motto is: Out of Many, One People. Join the author as he skilfully manipulates the topic, using humour, romance and wit. This book is a celebration of Caribbean culture, seen through the eyes of a Jamaican woman of East Indian descent.
