PAUL KEENS-DOUGLAS ~ Jumbies, Duppies and Spirits

Paul Keens-Douglas was born in September of 1942 in San Juan, Trinidad, but spent his early childhood in Grenada where he attended Presentation Boys College. As one writer puts it, " Paul Keens-Douglas celebrates our rich cultural amalgam and Caribbean landscapes like nobody else does. With a bubbling well of humour, humanity and heart, he reaches into the innermost crevices of ourselves and our cultures, and brings us back to joy, feeling, to the real sweetness of our societies."
