The Sky's Wild Noise

Selected Essays

Beschreibung

In these essays, Rupert Roopnaraine--who has been called a Caribbean Hazlitt--displays his sharp antennae for the spirit of the age and a prose style that is both elegant and intensely alive. A wide range of his interests are represented here, including literary and art criticism, political analysis, social commentary, memoirs, and tributes. Taken together, the material provides an overview of Roopnaraine's 30-year political battle for democracy, social justice, racial harmony, and the creation of a cultivated civil society in Guyana and the wider Caribbean.
