Only as the Wind
Blows
Only as the Wind Blows is a collection of ten short stories which
deal mainly with the growing up experiences of the author, Basil
Lopez. The author, however, tires to reconstruct these experiences
not solely on a personalized basis, but also in a context of a
construct which may for instance ask the question, why do so many of
us migrate? So some of the stories may be set in Miami or New York
Always, however, there is a concern with West Indian matters and
what is it that makes us a people. Flashes of humour permeate many
of the stories as well as frequent use of the Jamaican language.

Man A Yard (DVD)
“Man A Yard,” a play written and directed by
Basil ‘Ku-Soonogo’ Lopez, is set in the 1970’s when some Jamaican
businessmen were leaving the island. Thomas, a
tailorman, decided to stay and to try to establish a viable
tailoring establishment. Apart from the
difficulties he had in the general society, he also had difficulties
at home with his wife who was thinking of migrating.
He himself is not blameless and contributes to the
difficulties he is having. When the curtain
closes, we will see how successful he has been in establishing
himself as Man A Yard both privately and publicly.

In the Palace of the Gods
In the Palace of the Gods are a series of
meditations whose subject matter is mainly about spiritual
centredness. They are written in the form of messages to Ku-Soonogo's
children, which may be taken in a wider context to be messages to
the next generation. The book is divided into sections dealing with
family, friends, nationhood and immortality. There are in addition a
few of miscellaneous content. The style is of poetic prose, but
there are a few that are straight poetry.
