Publisher's Synopsis

It has been established that West Indian literature has played a role in the nationalist aim to validate Afro-Creole contributions to the creation of Caribbean civilization. This study examines how a literary text draws on popular culture to do this.


The study also includes an interview with Dr. George Lamming who responds to the hypotheses advanced in the study.
