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.
