Description

Ghetto Life: Struggles, Survival, and Hope in Kingston, Jamaica
By Patricia N. McKenzie
A powerful and deeply personal reflection on the resilience of a forgotten community, Ghetto Life chronicles the daily battles, survival strategies, and enduring spirit of those living in Kingston's urban ghettos. From pothole-filled streets to homes lit only by streetlamps, this gripping narrative explores poverty, discrimination, and the overlooked brilliance of people striving for a better life.

Through heartfelt storytelling, Patricia McKenzie honours the unsung heroes-mothers, fathers, students, vendors, and dreamers-who rise above adversity. She paints vivid portraits of community unity, cultural pride, and the pursuit of education against all odds. At once a memoir, a social commentary, and a call to action, this book reminds us: where you come from does not define where you can go.

Perfect for readers of social justice, memoir, Caribbean life, and those who believe in the power of hope.
