Description

Rather than seeing Nichols's Caribbean origins and Britishness as dual affiliations, simplistically opposed, this work argues that Nichols's writing is more productively read in terms of a series of border-crossings. Nichols's major female protagonists are seen as epic travellers, literally and imaginatively, across different cultural and psychic landscapes. This book also shows how Nichols's poetry explores the boundaries of race, class and gender: a part of the lived experience of being a black woman in Britain. Specific focuses include the critical neglect of black British women's writing, the problems and potentialities of different feminist reading strategies, the role of rewriting history and revisioning myth in Nichols's poetry and the nature of diaspora, cultural hybridity and the complex meaning of 'home' for the migrant writer.
