Memory and the Archival Turn in Caribbean Literature and Culture
This book discusses an archival turn in the work of contemporary Caribbean writers and visual artists across linguistic locations and whose work engages critically with various historical narratives and colonial and postcolonial records. This refiguration opens a critical space and retells stories and histories previously occluded in/by those records, and in spaces of the public sphere. Through poetics and aesthetics of fragmentation largely influenced by music and popular culture, their work encourages contrapuntal ways of (re)thinking histories; ways that interrogate the influence of colonial narratives in processes of silencing but also centre the knowledge found in oral histories and other forms of artistic archives outside official repositories. Discussing literature and selected artwork by artists from Britain, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, Haiti, Puerto Rico, and Trinidad and Tobago, Memory and the Archival Turn in Caribbean Literature and Culture demonstrates the historiographical significance of artistic and cultural production.

The Trophies of Grace
Lionel Etwaru became very involved in ministry with Apostle Harry Das and had the opportunity to see the power of the gospel transforming the lives of men and women. In this biography, we see how many lives have been changed and kept by the power of God. Many, in turn, became a part of the mission to share the Gospel in unreached villages, where churches have been planted. This dynamic presentation of the Gospel was expanded when Apostle Philip Mohabir came together with Apostle Harry Das in 1964 and founded the Full Gospel Fellowship. As the team expanded, so the number of churches increased. Today, there are more than 120 churches and scores of missionaries who have been trained in the Bible Training Center. This move did not only affect Guyana but at least thirty other nations around the world. Lionel now lives with his wife, Margaret, in Long Island, New York and pastors a church in Queens. He continues to travel to many other countries for ministry.
Doe Songs
"These poems inhabit a world of permeable barriers where transformations readily occur between men and women, humans and animals, the living and the dead. Hers is a world where the real and the mythical rub shoulders, where people know abou the magical properties of plants, where anything can happen, where "everything that breathes will howl". She writes of the complexity of family ties, of motherhood that is both tender and fearsome, of an intimacy with the natural world which is torn between fears for its fragility and belief in its resilience."
Karahee from the Cane Fields
Karahee from the Cane Fields: Writing from the Coolie Diaspora unifies the literature and culture of the global South Asian Labor Diaspora and how writers live within this identity. From the history of indenture in the 1830s to the 1920s, this racialized bondage replaced the Transatlantic slave trade and branded the servants of Empire as Coolie. The word Coolie comes from the dehumanization of the people under Imperial rule, turning them into a species of Césaire’s thingification. During this period, the British displaced Indians—some by will and others by force—from the ports of Calcutta and Madras to the settlements and colonies in Fiji, Mauritius, Reunion, South Africa, Jamaica, Tr...
