vivid!! this was vivid. more of a series of stories that sometimes overlap and interconnect, miguel street displayed a beautiful slice of life into the port of spain. the book felt so REAL. I could tell that the characters were based on real people and experiences, who had pains, struggles, and varying motivations. I don't know a lot about trinadad or it's culture in the 1960s, but this description was an incredible description of human life, that I easily learned so much. 

this book took me a HOT minute to read but it was not the books fault. I am just a fool and a procrastinator.
