No Pain Like This Body | Chapter 4.1
Manage episode 518908055 series 3683546
Welcome to Ink & Obeah, the secret reading society where Caribbean books speak, and the old magic answers back. Hosted by Trinidad-born storyteller and artist Addae G, each gathering takes us deeper into Caribbean literature, one chapter at a time. With candlelight, rain on a tin roof, and the rhythm of island storytelling, we explore not just the words, but the spirits, folklore, and ancestral memory alive inside them.

Chapter Four Description
The rain feels endless, falling on tin, mud, and wounds. The house is heavy, and the family is caught in a storm that echoes beyond the weather. Ma holds the children close while Pa slips further into drink and darkness. Ladoo’s words cut like thunder, short, brutal, biblical. This chapter explores the inheritance of pain and how silence can feed survival. The land watches, the rain listens, and every word is a prayer half-spoken.
