The fourth Carcanet collection from Trinidadian, Forward Prize-winning poet Vahni Capildeo.
Vahni Capildeo Volgorde van de boeken
Vahni Capildeo is een schrijver wiens werk diepgaand wordt gevormd door een rijk tapijt van invloeden, van Caribische connecties en Indiase diaspora-erfenis tot de landschappen die ze doorkruist en bewoont. Hun poëzie verkent thema's van identiteit en verbanning met een onderscheidende, gelaagde stem die put uit diverse bronnen. Capildeo's benadering van schrijven is diepgaand geïnformeerd door een academische achtergrond, wat blijkt uit de ingewikkelde taalkundige en culturele verkenningen die door hun collecties zijn geweven.
