Three Sisters by Anton Chekhov
Set in colonial Trinidad in 1939, this is a story about three sisters who endure a mundane, but privileged life in the capital, Port of Spain. Their hopes of emigrating to Britain are shattered as the European war escalates into a global conflict, Port of Spain is bombed, and the Trinidadian soldiers are called to serve the King and Empire.
