Über diesen Titel
Earl Lovelace is a major Caribbean writer, one of the few of his generation to have lived in and written almost exclusively from the region. With sharp observation and even sharper wit, his writing pulses with the rhythm, flow, and vibrancy of the lives of “ordinary” people, whose culture and language he champions.
Lovelace explores the intricacies of his multicultural society as it grapples with a legacy of slavery, indentureship, and colonialism and faces the challenges of independence and new nationhood, and he does so with compassion and true understanding.
In this brief but rich biography, Funso Aiyejina explores the writer and his work with the intimacy of a friend and the perceptiveness of a scholar. Lovelace himself is as storied as one of his characters, and the man and his life shine through. This biography is essential for any student of Caribbean literature, and will be equally compelling for a general listener.
