In this compilation, more than 50 contemporary Jamaican poets
reflect in outspoken, meditative, humorous, and outrageous ways
upon the historical and existential moment of Jamaican
independence. Ranging from the lyric and the pastoral to the
declarative and the celebratory, these poems employ language
registers across the full spectrum of Jamaican English and patois.
Often surprising and sometimes alarming, this book affirms the
contributors recognition of what it means to be Jamaican."
