Children of the Morning: New and Selected Poems

Meer over het boek

The collection showcases the poetry of Faustin Charles, a Trinidadian poet whose work reflects his diasporic identity and deep connection to Caribbean cultural heritage. With a blend of previously published and new poems, the volume delves into themes of separation and the forging of new connections. Focusing on youth, the poems convey a Blakean perspective on childhood, exploring innocence and experience, while addressing poignant issues such as racism, as seen in "Stephen's Song."
