Sumario: | "John Gilmore investigates the sometimes contradictory and contrasting realities of the region, from the legacy of slavery and exploitation, through to reggae and Walcott, sugar and cricket, volcanoes and the environment, Creole literature and the Anglican faith, and much more in this engaging volume. Taking a historical perspective which seeks to account for the region's similarities as well as differences, Faces of the Caribbean is an excellent introduction for the general reader as well as for students of Caribbean studies, cultural studies, and the history of the Americas."--Jacket |
