Publisher's Synopsis
Literary Nonfiction. Caribbean, European, and African American Studies. George Lamming, one of the Caribbean's finest intellects and foremost literary artists...summons us to the urgency of our obligations. The elegance of his utterance should not in any way detract from the gravity of the challenge...The Lamming monographs are themselves part of the current discourse which targets the historical, cultural and scientific implications of the pan-hemispheric encounters that will continue to be of global importance well into the twenty-first century.--Rex Nettleford, Pro Vice Chancellor, University of the West Indies
