"Caribbean Football Victory: Surviving in Paradise" explores the tremendous impact that football (soccer) has had on Trinidad and Tobago (in the colonial and post-colonial eras) and the international influence of football and the media on Caribbean citizens. The novel emphasizes the significance of sport, religion, class, ethnicity, and culture in Caribbean identity. This is a story of bravery and optimism as Emmanuel and his descendants struggle to overcome stereotypes, discrimination, and poverty. Childhood and adolescent aspirations, coupled with family relationships, unfold in this unique tragicomedy that transcends geographical boundaries. The amusing characters, such as Wilfred, Delisa, Harriet, and Ritchie, are depicted as dysfunctional, eccentric, and superstitious. "Caribbean Football Victory" presents an exciting account of a lower-class family experiencing limited social mobility. Historic events, such as the qualifying World Cup game in 1989 and the visit of former President of the United States, Barack Obama, in 2010, are woven into this thrilling tale of defeats and victories.
