Ethnic diversity and the battle to overcome colonial oppression are the two dominant motifs in this uniformly excellent, well-balanced collection of stories and essays from the Caribbean. Smorkaloff, who teaches at NYU's Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies, groups the entries into sections on plantation society, colonization and colonial education, inter-Caribbean relations, liberation and so on. Smorkaloff goes the extra mile by providing a section of essays that frame the fiction against the politics and history of the region, as well as bibliographies of all the authors. This fine anthology will intrigue those new to Caribbean literature and may surprise even aficionados with the power and enormous variety of its prose. Quantity Available: 1.
