About the Book

On a wet Monday morning, a car runs off the road and kills the author's father who is on his early morning walk, a short distance from his home. In coming to terms with his father's senseless and accidental death, the author has written a beautifully crafted, evocative memoir reminiscent of the writings of Jamaica Kincaid and Toni Morrison. My Father Is No Longer There is nothing less than a meditation on the nature of death, the value of a life, the nature of art and creativity, and what it means to be different, to be an outsider, to live on the fringes of society. It is a manifestation of the author's quest to get to know his father better than when he was alive. It is an exploration of family values, the depths of parental love and sacrifice, and the importance of parent-child bonding. My Father Is No Longer There will resonate with all those who have suffered a great loss, be it the death of a loved one, or a parent-child separation."Dr. Reynold's mastery as a fierce storyteller is yet again reaffirmed. This memoir calmly and thoroughly takes the reader along the rough terrain of a family's epic struggle for survival..." - Peter Lansiquot, CARICOM diplomat and Economist"A pulsating ... riveting ... and compellingly readable narrative."- Modeste Downes, author of A Lesson on Wings."A love ballad, a joy to read and a privilege to be savoured."- Dr. Jolien Harmsen, author of A History of St. Lucia.
