Selected Poems

by Derek Walcott

A comprehensive overview of Derek Walcott’s body of work. The great man wrestling with words and taming them with his characteristic wit and observational prowess. There is a joy in the tales that are told with a lilting backbeat of calypso informing his take on classical themes, we are in the hands of a true master of the form. Which prompts me to the observation that a good definition of a poet is someone who uses the word scansion in normal discourse without any irony.

The Dragon Can't Dance (Karen and Michael Braziller Books)

by Earl Lovelace

Call it a masquerade or rather a prose calypso. A novel full of life, rooted in the shifting slums of the hills overlooking Port of Spain. The cast of characters is deeply drawn out, the humour of street life, the spirit of a neighbourhood, the ups and down of the young and old, the encroaching of commerce seductive as always and a clash with an irredentist spirit of rebellion. A calypso never shies away from wit, romance or politics, it comes from poverty and a culture of resilience. Lilting social commentary from Trinidad.
