A Reader's Guide to West Indian and Black British Literature

This text is an exploration of how history has been perceived, constructed and used in the fiction, poetry and drama of the Caribbean. Nana Wilson-Tagoe shows how in turn the literature has broadened the definitions of history to include deeper currents and hidden influences. The book raises questions about gender and history and the ways in which women's experiences have mediated their portrayal of the past. The author also explores the complex role of Africa in the imagination of West Indian writers. North America: University Press of Florida; Caribbean: University of the West Indies Press
