The Rampage Story. Editor Pax Nindi

Su Andi | December 14, 2011

The Rampage Story

ISBN-13: 978-0956905703

Publisher: Global Carnival Centre

Price £9.99

Cynics might say “OK it’s a book on carnival so what, the pictures are pretty”. What they do not realise is that Rampage is an important record of the Caribbean’s stunning art form which is carnival.

Pax Nindi as editor and interviewer secured sufficient funding to ensure that the work of Colin Spalding and all the people of many cultural identities will live beyond Mas day on the coffee  (whoops) rum tables of the thousands and thousands of revellers whose spirits lift to the heavens when carnival time comes around.

One man’s dedication, determination and incredible artistic vision deserves not just one book but a whole archive and thanks to Nindi, that day may come.

Small wonder it is already out of stock in Waterstones and on Amazon
