No Apples in Eden: New & Selected Poems

No Apples In Eden collects nearly twenty years of John Lyons's brilliantly vivid and immediate poetry. This book celebrates the rich and colourful texture of the culture of Trinidad and Tobago. It recalls childhood memories of sun-filled days, evokes images of folklore characters and expresses, in a life fraught with deprivation, the transformative power of calypso and carnival.
