`Review from previous edition 'Part of what distinguishes the
Oxford Book of Caribbean Short Stories from the Penguin anthology
of 1996 is the fact that it contains more stories which were
created will away from this anglophone turf...It is a measure of
the collective talent of these writers, and of the editors'
judiciousness, that the book's egalitarian, inclusive aim does not
diminish the quality of its contents. For the most part, both
students and the
general rfeader will find an array of gelaming starting points for
further exploration.''
Bill Broun, TLS
