このコンテンツについて

INK & OBEAH is where the page meets the altar, and every story is both literature and a living spell. Hosted by Addae G, the Griot. A Caribbean storyteller, poet, and keeper of ancestral memory. This podcast journeys deep into books that hold more than just words.

We begin with No Pain Like This Body by Harold Sonny Ladoo, peeling back the layers of Trinidad’s cane fields, rainswept villages, and burning kitchens to reveal the echoes of history, the whispers of folklore, and the unseen hands of spirit. Each episode blends intimate readings, personal reflections, cultural decoding, and mystical interpretation, uncovering the way stories in the Caribbean are never simply told, they’re conjured.


What makes INK & OBEAH different?
This is not an academic seminar. It’s not a detached review. It’s an initiation. You’ll hear the creak of the verandah chair, the soft hiss of rain on galvanise, the brush of a page turning under candlelight. You’ll feel the presence of obeah in the margins, and the living pulse of the ancestors in every metaphor.


Addae G’s commentary moves between the scholar’s study and the village storyteller’s corner, between literary craft and oral tradition, between the sacred and the mischievous. Alongside the words, you’ll hear original music composed by Addae G; atmospheric, meditative, and charged with Caribbean soul that's available as a separate download for immersive listening.


Themes explored:

  • Caribbean literature and its deeper meanings
  • Obeah, folklore, and ancestral knowledge hidden in plain sight
  • The intersection of spirituality, history, and storytelling
  • Personal and cultural memory in the diaspora
  • The Caribbean landscape as both character and spirit guide
  • How the written word becomes a ritual act


INK & OBEAH is part book club, part spiritual reasoning, part cultural time travel. Pull up a chair. Light a candle. Turn the page — and mind the spirits that slip through the ink.

    Welcome to Ink & Obeah, the secret reading society where Caribbean books speak, and the old magic answers back. Hosted by Trinidad-born storyteller and artist Addae G, each gathering takes us deeper into Caribbean literature, one chapter at a time. With candlelight, rain on a tin roof, and the rhythm of island storytelling, we explore not just the words, but the spirits, folklore, and ancestral memory alive inside them.

    You can support the Society and help keep these readings alive by contributing on PayPal or Ko-fi. A digital copy of the book is also available so you can read along with us as we turn each page together.

    Chapter Three Description

    The rain feels endless, falling on tin, mud, and memory. The house is heavy, the family caught in a storm that’s more than weather. Ma holds the children close while Pa slips further into drink and darkness. Ladoo’s words cut like thunder, short, brutal, biblical. This chapter explores how pain becomes inheritance, how silence feeds survival. The land watches, the rain listens, and every word is a prayer half-spoken.

    Chapter Two Description

    In this second gathering, we step deeper into Harold Sonny Ladoo’s No Pain Like This Body. The rain hasn’t stopped falling, and the family is still struggling in the mud and the storm. In this chapter, the tension between Pa and Ma sharpens, the children’s nakedness in the rain becomes a symbol of both innocence and exposure, and the August weather feels less like nature and more like a punishment. We’ll sit with the silences, the cruelty, and the ways Ladoo’s language makes the land itself into a character.
