No Customer Reviews

Exploring the Anglophone and Francophone divisions of Caribbean literature, the writers and critics working together to create this volume offer a productive way to explore Caribbean culture as a unity, but with its own distinctive characteristics. Addressing a myriad of issues as well as such writers as Robert Antoni, Erna Brodber, Alejo Carpentier, George Lamming, Boeli van Leeuwen, Saint-John Perse, Simone Schwarz-Bart, Derek Walcott and others, this is a unique look at the differences within and unity of Caribbean culture and literature.
