The Oxford Book of Caribbean Verse cover

The Caribbean has produced one of the most vigorous and exciting bodies of poetry of the last one hundred year. The Oxford Book of Caribbean Verse is the only contemporary anthology to present the best of the English-language poetry of the region alongside selections from the poetry of both the French and Spanish Caribbean. Featuring a range of established poets from Derek Walcott to Jesus Cos Causse, Olive Senior to Aimé Césaire, as well as exciting new voices, this is a rich and challenging book.

Review from previous edition 'a wonderful beginner's guide to the amazing riches of caribbean poetry. The editors provide an excellent, comprehensive introduction.' * Bernadine Evaristo, The Guardian *
