Beyond Windrush : rethinking postwar Anglophone Caribbean literature
2017
Books
Since the establishment of Caribbean literary studies, scholars have exalted an elite cohort of emigre novelists based in postwar London, a group often referred to as 'the Windrush writers'. This volume stands out as the first book to reexamine and redefine the writing of this crucial era. Its original essays make clear that in the 1950s there was already a wide spectrum of West Indian men and women who were writing, publishing, and even painting.
