Set between Trinidad and New York from the late 1960s to the early 1990s, it tells the story of Joromi, a young DJ whose summer romance leads to heartbreak, a hidden daughter, and lifelong consequences. Across shifting seasons and continents, James stitches together the lives of Joromi, Margaret, Trisha, and their families, weaving a tale about choices that echo through generations. It's messy, real, and haunting in the best way.\"\u003cstrong\u003e Literary Titan Starred Review.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom the vibrant fetes of 1969 Trinidad to the quiet revelations of 1991, \u003cstrong\u003eScarlet Birthright\u003c\/strong\u003e weaves a spellbinding tale of passion, fear, and courage that breaks generational patterns.
