Sam Selvon

“Is one of those summer evenings, when it look like night would never come, a magnificent evening, a powerful evening, rent finish paying, rations in the cupboard, twenty pounds in the bank, and a nice piece of skin waiting under the big clock in Piccadilly Tube Station. The sky blue, sun shining, the girls ain't have on no coats to hide the legs.

"Mummy, look at that black man!" A little child, holding on to the mother hand, look up at Sir Galahad.

"You mustn't say that, dear!" The mother chide the child.”
