Introduction

The idea of writing this book was founded on the people whom I have met on the streets or in an establishment in my Flatbush neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York, USA. I summed them up as being bold and strapped with interesting character traits. They never cease to amaze and impress me with their antics, stories, knowledge on world events, laws, local happenings and their opinions on current affairs and religion. They court stamina. More importantly they express themselves without fear...self-induced therapy.



REVIEW
Oh Me Oh I Oh You…just ask the questions is an insightful and witty collection of essays that explores the rich culture and meanings behind the old adages of Caribbean/Jamaican folklore. Grace powerfully quips with wisdom, self-reflection, and astute observation, cleverly drawing you into each story as you recognize situations or dilemmas relevant and relatable to you. Her ability to write in such raw, unabashed, honest, and thoughtful manner only reinforces the connection you experience to each of her stories. In this atmospheric platform of life lessons you will find there is something for everyone. Whether you are a procrastinator, a teenager experiencing peer pressure, or someone having trouble asserting your voice in the workplace, this easy-to-read thought-provoking book will draw you into the wisdom of ‘old sayings’, helping you to find your voice and your ‘aha’ moment. A must-read!  - Natasha Ioda
