Not at Home in One's Home: Caribbean Self-Fashioning in the Poetry of Luis Pales Matos, Aime Cesaire and Derek Walcott


Overview

This book examines the work of three major twentieth-century Caribbean poets: one Puerto Rican, one Martinician, and one Saint Lucian. Focusing on one major work by each poet, it follows their efforts to confront the Archipelagos historical legacy of racism and colonialism through the creation of poetic personae that unceasingly alternate between the open dialogism of political engagement and the monologic closure of lyric self-articulation.
