Plus tales of magic and myth from the beaches of Guyana.A diversity of new talent: timely and charming, these lively stories include:'Ole Man's Luck' - a lovely, timeless tale of a young girl, hibiscus flowers and fishermen from a shoreline where South America meets the Caribbean'Brimful of Hope' - an atmospheric story in which family loyalties are questioned when the birth of a new baby coincides with the death of Manu's father and his mother's return to India'Handsworth Songs' - a sharply observed tale of boy-meets-girl against a backdrop of the sights and sounds and rhythms of inner-city Birmingham'A Direful Sound' - this zesty story builds up to a fiery Diwali: Aunty Neeta - with her impressive forearms - gets a job as a bus driver, becomes a local TV celebrity and upsets her big sulking baby of a husband in the process
