Description

An A-Z of Neglected Writers from the English-speaking Caribbean makes a major contribution to providing a fuller picture of the region's rich literary history. It both restores our knowledge of writers - such as WG Ogilvie and Claude Thompson - whose lives and work have slipped out of view while heralding others - Edwina Melville and Monica Skeete, for example - whose work has never been properly recognised. Offering a fascinating insight into the worlds of these 'lost' writers, this A-Z also provides future researchers with a comprehensive bibliography of their forgotten works.
