Diasporic (Dis)Locations: Indo-Caribbean Women Writers Negotiate the Kala Pani
ISBN: 9789766401573 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych.

Notions of Identity, Diaspora, and Gender in Caribbean Women's Writing
ISBN: 9780230618817 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Notions of Identity, Diaspora, and Gender in Caribbean Women's Writing uses a unique four-dimensional lens to frame questions of diaspora and gender in the writings of women from Martinique, Guadeloupe, and Haiti.
