SET FIRE, JAQUELINE CROOKS
London, late seventies: economic crisis, race riots, and fights on every corner. Yamaye seeks refuge in The Crypt, an underground reggae club in the suburb where she grew up. Raised by a distant father, she plunges into the night to forget her traumas and discover herself in the darkness of the dance floor. For those like her: "shop lights are police spotlights, and sirens wail in the distance." After losing everything, Yamaye embarks on a transformative journey that takes her from the Bristol underbelly to the jungles of Jamaica, where past and present collide with explosive consequences.
In *Light It Up*, Jacqueline Crooks twists language to capture the music and culture of an era, while exploring themes of identity, family, loss, and political awakening. The result is a story that resonates, like the booming bass drum in a dub track, in a present that feels all too familiar.
