Sobre IBD

Summer Baby traces the author’s journey from the Bronx to Montserrat as an infant, his return to New York City, and his lifelong quest to embrace and preserve his dual identity. In his evocative memoir Summer Baby, Wendell White invites readers on a deeply personal journey from the bustling streets of the Bronx to the serene hills of Montserrat, West Indies. A poignant tribute to family, culture, and identity, this memoir weaves together the universal themes of migration, belonging, and the enduring love of those who shape us.The island of Montserrat itself emerges as a central character, its landscapes and people indelibly etched in his heart even as volcanic flows in the late 1990s transformed and buried much of the home he once knew. With time, these stories risk fading, lost when the last who lived them are no longer here to tell them.
