With Fred D'Aguiar and Caribbean Literature: Metaphor, Myth,
Memory, Leo Courbot offers the first research monograph entirely
dedicated to a comprehensive reading of the verse and prose works
of Fred D'Aguiar, prized American author of Anglo-Guyanese origin.
"Postcolonial" criticism, when related to the history of the
African diaspora, regularly inscribes itself in the wake of
Sartrean philosophy. However, Fred D'Aguiar's both typical and
untypical Caribbean background, in addition to the singularity of
his diction, call for a different approach, which Leo Courbot
convincingly carries out by reading literature in the light of
Jacques Derrida and Edouard Glissant's less conventional sense of
the intrinsically metaphorical and cross-cultural nature of
language.
