"Queer Narratives of the Caribbean Diaspora: Exploring Tactics"
combines the fields of queer and diasporic writing. It opens up an
entire new domain where social and cultural meanings of sexuality
within Caribbean space become objects of historical, colonial and
literary investigations. By juxtaposing queerness, nation and
belonging, this book unlocks both disciplines, making them
permeable to other contexts and perspectives. Exploring the works
of writers such as Shani Mootoo, Jamaica Kincaid and Lawrence
Scott, this book investigates the Western notions of sexual
identity and belongingness alongside postcolonial deployments of
nation, diaspora and sexuality. The book adds to the abundant
fields of queer and diaspora studies by intersecting them, in order
not only to render their ability to work together but also to
expose their weaknesses and highly contested underpinnings.
