My Undiscovered Country

Critics have called Dabydeen a "short story master," and in this latest collection, his stories of life in Guyana are interspersed with the urban landscape of Canada where Dabydeen has lived for decades. His stories are distinctive with a strong narrative voice that encompasses fantasy and reality as ethnic and cultural roots commingle. The authors inflection is mixed with motifs when the tropics and the temperate merge. For Dabydeen, literature is undiscovered country.
