Books with title Yellow Bird and Me

It's all fun and games - until a child becomes pregnant. A passing remark and a coincidental birthmark leads one man to believe that he is the Son of God; one twelve-year-old boy to believe that he is a disciple; one teen-aged girl pregnant and insane; one mother frustrated and angry; and one tiny village caught in the throws of deceit and confusion. Set in Castleton, rural St. Andrew, at the dawn of Jamaica's independence, "Yellow and Me" is an honest and insightful coming-of-age probe into the mind of Rodney, a boy already perplexed by the death of his father and the merciless changes of puberty. Add to that the influence of Yellow, the albino "king of the idlers" and self-proclaimed prophet, who is as unwitting as he is manipulative. Will Yellow suffer the fate of the other false prophets, a victim of vigilante justice? Will Castleton emerge unscathed by the two-year reign of the man who was sent by God? We are compelled to agree with Rodney as he reflects: If it wasn't for the matter of Pauline, it all would have been so funny.
