Granmother Da and her grandson, Old Bones, the narrator (we never learn his real name), sit on their porch in Petit-Goave, Haiti and watch their world go by. Old Bones is 10 years old and ill. Da is the matriarch of the village, dispensing wisdom while she dispenses the best tasting coffee in Haiti to all who pass by.
