The author was born into a large family and taught many traditional Caribbean values, which led to her difficult upbringing. She was conflicted by respecting her elders, the secrets they held, her religious upbringing, and her need to know the truth about herself. Hate and jealousy created stumbling blocks on her path, but the silence threatened her physical existence. We see the main character transform herself from her experiences in her attempt to seek the answers she had been longing for. She breaks the silence, risking the loyalty she has for her mother in an attempt to find truth and peace within her heart.
