- This substantial monograph (pp. 240; 105,000 words) results from seven years of research, including archival work in Trinidad and Jamaica. It breaks new ground, being the first book-length study of contemporary Caribbean short fiction. It offers in-depth analysis of short fiction by eight writers, published across three decades (1985-2005), and set in three different countries (Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, Guyana). With roughly 8000 words on each writer, it contains the equivalent of eight journal articles.
