I Hear Thunder
About this book
Set in Trinidad, I Hear Thunder catches the anxieties which accompany the homecoming of Mark, a young black doctor, from England with his white wife, Joyce.
Mark returns to his mother and to his oldest and best friend, Adrian, who stayed behind when Mark joined the RAF during World War II. During the years of Mark's military service and study in Europe, Adrian has enjoyed the easy loving and drunken nights tolerated by the happy-go-lucky Trinidad society. The two men try to recapture the carefree friendship of their youth but now find that their differences are too great.
