"The Lonely Londoners" is about the experiences of some West Indians
who have left their homeland for London in search of greener pastures.
The central character, Moses Aloeta, is an experienced immigrant who
helps newer immigrants (including Henry Oliver) to settle down.
However, the new immigrants face problems like inclement weather,
racial discrimination, unemployment and accomodation problems. Their
people back home are desperate to go to London, yet the ones already
there are suffering. The boys are uncomfortable in London but cannot
return home because there is nothing to show for their stay.
