Apostate! No More Bazoodee: A Grenadian Quest to Think Outside the Box Seon M. Lewis

Most (if not all) Grenadians have grown up hearing stories of la diablesse, lagahou and sookooyant. But have you ever wondered about the origin of these stories? This book just doesn't re-tell these stories. It traces their origins, and looks at them as being influential in helping shape our self-identity and our interpersonal relationship. In fact, this book examines and critiques aspects of the Grenadian sociocultural and sociopolitical culture that seek, in many ways, to minimize and suppress the individual's search for self-identity especially as he or she tries to pursue knowledge that appears to be outside the socially accepted. In doing so, this book follows the author's journey as he analyzes old ideas and engaged with new ones. Also central to this book is that it seeks to help the individual develop his or her moral and ethical awareness.
