"Remember Wen?" is an autobiographical collection of poems and short stories recounting the boyhood memories of Rodney Foster. As an introduction to a greater cross-section of people to Trinidad and Tobago society, Foster records his experiences as a person born and raised in Trinidad and Tobago and asks us to recall our own memories and experiences as we read his work.
"Remember Wen?" is full of companionship and advice. There is symbolism, appeal, and historic recordings intertwined in Foster’s “homeboy”, humorous writing style. Foster captures the human side of growing up in Trinidad and Tobago, and expresses his gratitude for the values bestowed through this experience. He employs a theme of love for the country of his birth, his fellow man, his life, his heritage, and his calling to capture the elements and traditions of the Trinidad and Tobago society which need to be preserved, but alas, are dying.
