Summary: Leon Seal is training for the Southern Games, a forerunner of the Commonwealth Games. In his zeal, Leon ignores his girlfriend and is not even interested in participating in Trinidad's heady Carnival festivities. The novel asserts the need for balance between Leon's disciplined restraint and the fevered abandon of the Carnival. Leon's mischievous brother, Dolphus, serves as counterpart to the single-mindedness of both Leon's rigidity and the Carnival's joyful, chaotic energy.
