Shortlisted for the OCM Bocas Poetry Prize for Caribbean Literature 2025 Shortlisted for the John Pollard Foundation International Poetry Prize 2025 Christine Roseeta Walker's first book is set entirely in Negril, Jamaica. Coco Island presents a compelling cycle of poems, attentive to the undertow and hidden forces that shape a place and its people.

Piecing together the isolated lives of those left behind as the island modernises, her fearless, memorable poems chart the devastation of a world.
