Saint George’s wraps around a horseshoe-shaped harbor on Grenada’s southwestern coast, the hills rising steeply on all sides.

Grenada runs on Atlantic Standard Time, UTC-4, year-round without daylight saving. Saint George’s shares this clock with Roseau in Dominica to the north and with the eastern Caribbean island chain.
Grenada is the Spice Isle: the world’s second-largest producer of nutmeg, with mace, cinnamon, cloves, and ginger also growing in the volcanic soil. The Grand Etang rainforest in the interior feeds the rivers that run down to the coast, and the spice plantations are scattered across the hillsides between. The market in Saint George’s smells of nutmeg on a warm morning.
the spice market and a national memory
On October 25, 1983, the United States and a coalition of Caribbean states invaded Grenada following a political coup and the killing of Prime Minister Maurice Bishop. The invasion is still discussed in Grenada, and the date is a specific national memory, a moment when external events imposed themselves on the island’s time.
