Tourist, Traveller, Troublemaker:: Essays on Poetry

More about the book

Focusing on the works of notable poets such as Derek Walcott and Kamau Brathwaite, this collection critiques postcolonial theory while emphasizing the significance of poetry over its criticism. Stewart Brown's autobiographical and literary essays serve as a foundation for the discussions, which are both expansive and thought-provoking. Originally crafted for literary journals, these revised and updated essays offer a rigorous exploration of the poets' contributions across Caribbean, African, British, and American contexts.
