"I would like to see writers writing about movement from one island to the other. I don't really want a novel about Trinidad. I want the characters to move and go up to UWI [University of the West Indies] in Jamaica and spend a week in Barbados—have friends in Barbados, have friends in Cuba. This is what I’m hoping to do in the new novel."
