Synopsis "Writings from Uppa Yaad: Jamaican Dialect for Writings From My Yard (in English)"
The spelling in the title of this book WRITINGS FROM UPPA YAAD is representative of the Jamaican dialect. The poems written by Barbara McKenzie demonstrate the diversity of the Jamaican language, some of which are written in the dialect, as well as standard English. While this book's target audience is the Jamaican Diaspora, it is hoped that it will be enjoyed by the extended Jamaican family worldwide. Peckham Heights, affectionately named after the patriarch, sits in a modest farming community called Wilberforce; a beautiful home from which brilliant and humble minds emerged. BARBARA MCKENZIE is a court reporter from Jamaica, who currently serves the judiciary in the Turks and Caicos Islands. Her love for writing started in her very early years when her late mother, who had written a few poems herself, made it mandatory that all her children MUST participate in every concert in town. Her book covers a gamut of topics including current happenings locally and worldwide. Be emersed in her poetry which will elicit laughter, tears, and a range of other emotions as she takes you on a journey of her life through verse.
