This first full-length study of Grace Nichols's work argues that,
rather than exploring the tension between its 'Caribbeaness' and
'Britishness', it is more productively read in terms of a series of
border crossings. Nichols's major female protagonists are seen as
epic journeyers travelling across different cultural and psychic
landscapes. It shows how her poetry explores the boundaries of
race, class and gender as part of the lived experience of being a
black woman in Britain and the study focuses on the specifics of
black British women's writing, different feminist reading
strategies, rewriting history and revisioning myth in Nichols's
poetry and the nature of diaspora, cultural hybridity and the
complex meaning of 'home' for the migrant writer.
