Review
“An extremely important book. Before its appearance, no literary historian or critic, let alone lover of poetry, will have been able to measure the full richness of West Indian poetic creation.” —Ian McDonald, novelist, The Dervish House
"[Roach was] the most splendid voice of the Caribbean Renaissance (1948–1972)." —Kamau Brathwaite, poet, Born to Slow Horses

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This is a second, significantly revised, edition of the work of Eric Roach, who with Claude McKay and Louise Bennett was the Caribbean's most important poet before the generation of Derek Walcott and Kamau Brathwaite. It collects the poems published in literary journals between 1938-1973, Roach's early pseudonymous work and a substantial selection of his unpublished poems from manuscript. The collection is edited and introduced by Kenneth Ramchand, Professor Emeritus at the University of the West Indies.When the first edition appeared in 1992, it was recognised as one of the most important Caribbean publishing events of recent years. This second edition adds a number of rediscovered poems and includes significant variants of a number of Roach's most important poems."The most splendid voice of the Caribbean Renaissance (1948-1972)."Kamau BrathwaiteEric Merton Roach was born in 1915 in Tobago. As well as three plays Belle Fanto (1967), Letter from Leonora (1968) and A Calabash of Blood (1971) he accumulated an impressive body of poetry. In 1974, leaving behind 'Finis', a suicide note transformed into art, Roach drank insecticide and swam out to sea at Quinam Bay, itself the subject of his fine poem 'At Quinam Bay'. He was posthumously awarded the Trinidad and Tobago National Hummingbird Gold Medal in 1974. This updated version assembles the work of one of the Caribbean's major poets, Eric Merton Roach. A remarkable anthology, it collects the poems published in journals between 1938 and 1973, Roach's early pseudonymous work, and a substantial selection of his unpublished poems from manuscript.
