This book focuses on sex and sexuality in post-war novels from the Anglophone Caribbean. Countering the critical orthodoxy that literature from this period dealt with sex only tangentially, implicitly transmitting sexist or homophobic messages, the author instead highlights the range and diversity in its representations of sexual life. She draws on gender and sexuality studies, postcolonial theory and cultural history to provide new readings of seminal figures like Samuel Selvon and George Lamming whilst also calling attention to the work of innovative, lesser-studied authors such as Andrew Salkey, Oscar Dathorne and Rosa Guy.
Kate Houlden is a Lecturer in English Literature and Cultural History at Liverpool John Moores University, UK. Her research interests include Caribbean literature, postcolonial literature, contemporary fiction, feminism, queer theory, gender and sexuality studies.
