Ways of Sunlight

Ways of sunlight is a short story collection written by Trinidadian writer Samuel Selvon. It was first published in 1957 and it includes 19 short stories.
==Historical background==

The island of Trinidad was rediscovered by Cristopher Colombus in 1498. The Spanish ruled over the island for a long time, but it was mainly settled by French. In 1797 it became a British colony. Until the abolition of slavery, African people came to Trinidad to work in the plantations. Then a second huge migration flow brought Indians to Trinidad, who worked as indentured servants on the estates.
Not only people came to Trinidad, but also a lot of Trinidadians left their motherland to look for a new job: in the 1950s-1960s many people went to the United Kingdom. An advertising campaign was made to create new workplaces (for example in the transport industry) to save UK economy from the crisis caused by the Second World War. Trinidad gained its independence in 1962.
