L. Samuels je podmanivý hlas, ktorého dielo skúma bohatú tapisériu jamajsko-americkej identity. Prostredníctvom evokatívnej prózy a prenikavého pozorovania sa Samuels ponára do tém dedičstva a spolupatričnosti, pričom čitateľom ponúka jedinečnú perspektívu. Ich rozprávanie sa vyznačuje vrelosťou a hĺbkou, vtiahne čitateľov do živých svetov a relatable postáv. Samuelsové umelecké cítenie siaha až k ilustrácii, čo dodáva ich príbehom ďalšiu vrstvu bohatstva.
