Nobel Laureate Derek Walcott is one of the Caribbean's most famous
writers. His unique voice in poetry, drama and criticism is shaped
by his position at the crossroads between Caribbean, British and
American culture and by his interest in hybrid identities and
diaspora. Edward Baugh's Derek Walcott analyses and evaluates
Walcott's entire career over the last fifty years. Baugh guides the
reader through the continuities and differences of theme and style
in Walcott's poems and plays. Walcott is an avowedly Caribbean
writer, acutely conscious of his culture and colonial heritage, but
he has also made a lasting contribution to the way we read and
value the western literary tradition. This comprehensive 2006
survey considers each of Walcott's published books, offering a
guide for students, scholars and readers of Walcott. Students of
Caribbean and postcolonial studies will find this a perfect
introduction to this important writer.
