    About the Book

    Sweetness in the Skin is set in 90s Kingston, Jamaica and tells the story of the irrepressible Pumkin Patterson who is trying and failing to find her place: at home, at school, and in wider society.

    When her family implodes, Pumkin chooses to become master of her fate and embarks on an epic journey to find a new home.

    But as Pumpkin strives to move further and further away from the city she knows, she discovers that what she is looking for might be closer to home than she’d imagined after all.

    About the Author

    Ishi Robinson was born and raised in Kingston, Jamaica. She has lived in Bern, Toronto, Rome, London and now lives in Berlin with her Czech husband.
