Jamaica farewell, Trinidad wh’appen? Monday 10 May 2021 Kashka Hemans: “My love affair with Trinidad started as a child. I read a lot and loved Trinidad because I loved its literature most.” Photo by BC Pires AS TOLD TO BC PIRES My name is Kashka Hemans and, after a real love affair with it, I have a tabanca for Trinidad. I lived in Trinidad in two stints, 2007-9, at Hugh Wooding Law School, and 2010-16. But my love affair with Trinidad started as a child. I read a lot and loved Trinidad because I loved its literature most. VS Naipaul is my favourite author. I loved Earl Lovelace’s descriptions of landscape, Manzanilla and all kinda places.
