Set against the backdrop of 1960s London, a young West Indian man's journey unfolds as he seeks belonging amidst the challenges of exile. Victor 'Lucky' Johnson arrives with aspirations of journalism but faces disillusionment while working in an Irish pub and as a rent collector for a corrupt landlord. Caryl Phillips intricately explores themes of loss, identity, and resilience, offering a poignant portrayal of the Windrush generation's struggles and triumphs in a rapidly changing immigrant landscape.

Caryl Phillips is a highly respected writer known for his fiction, essays, and stage plays. He has also created radio plays, nine of which aired on the BBC from 1984 to 2016. Previously stored in Phillips's archives at Yale University, these works are now published in a collection, marking the first time they are available to the public. Though previously overlooked, these radio plays are significant contributions to Phillips's literary body. They showcase his signature blend of formal elegance and sharp social critique while providing intriguing comparisons to his other writings. The plays explore diverse themes, including the experience aboard an eighteenth-century slave ship, the life of a migrant family in 1980s England, James Baldwin's time in Paris, and Marvin Gaye's stay in Belgium. Each work creatively addresses expansive themes. Accompanied by a scholarly introduction from Bénédicte Ledent, this volume presents these plays for the first time, enhancing readers' understanding of Phillips's narrative techniques and offering insights into his imaginative world, which spans the history of the African diaspora and the challenges faced by displaced individuals globally.
