Notes:
261 p, "Énorme, anormal, difforme ou sinueux, le thème baroque se développe au mépris des limites, cadres de l'image, marges de la page, frontières des genres ou des tonalités. N'y aurait-il pas, dès lors, une affinité entre le baroque et la mise en question de la loi? Entre une liberté merveilleuse et l'angoisse du vide, le baroque mène ainsi la folle sarabande de l'écriture et de la musique. L'écrivain n'est-il pas à l'image de ses personnages livre des pouvoirs de l'imaginaire, se livrant à la transgression joyeuse, et cependant inquiet de découvrir une 'loi symbolique', ou une 'loi d'expression', dans le langage d'Édouard Glissant" (Amazon);

Notes:
452 p., George Lamming is one of the best known, certainly one of the most highly regarded contemporary writers from the Caribbean. Spanning nearly 60 years and encompassing fiction, poetry and critical essays, Lamming's writing covers the length and breadth of Caribbean intellectual, cultural, political and literary life. Credited as a part of that group of Caribbean activists who awoke the Caribbean to its identity and more specifically to its cultural identity, his works have focused on finding new political and social identity.

Notes:
452 p., Anthony Bogues pulls together Lamming's critical works, some previously published, some given as addresses, lectures and interviews. Lamming is best known for his novels. In the Castle of My Skin and The Emigrants take place in England and are largely autobiographical. Of Age and Innocence and Season of Adventure are set on the fictional Caribbean island of San Cristobal. In Water with Berries, the plot of Shakespeare's The Tempest is used to unmask the imperfections of West Indian society while his final novel, Natives of My Person, gives account of the voyage of a slave-trading ship on the triangular trade route from Europe to Africa to the New World colonies.
