Title: Come Back to Me My Language
Description: "First published in 1993, now featuring a 2019 afterword, Come Back to Me My Language is the classic account of the making of Caribbean poetry that parallels Kenneth Ramchand's foundational The West Indian Novel and Its Background. Since its publication, another generation of Caribbean poets has emerged, but anyone wanting to see where the Caribbean poetry of the past 25 years has come from will need to consult Chamberlin's judicious, sensitive, insightful and deeply researched study, not least as a model for how to write the kind of poetry criticism that sends you back to the poems with renewed enthusiasm and understanding." -- Peepal Press website.
