THE acceptance of Kevin Jared Hosein’s latest novel, Devotion, by publishing giant Bloomsbury brings a boost of confidence to Trinidadian and Caribbean writers.
His success hasn t come easy. He said between 2012 and 2020, he was rejected at least 30-40 times by different publications and competitions.
Devotion is set in 1940s central Trinidad and tells the stories of the Changoors and the Saroops, Hosein said.
“The spotlight shifts between an estate farm, home of the wealthy Changoors, and an old barrack, where the impoverished Saroops live. After Mr Changoor mysteriously disappears, ransom letters start appearing, and their dogs start getting viciously killed, Mr Saroop is tasked to act as a watchman for the Changoor house.
