Post-Colonial Caribbean Literature

Post-Colonial Caribbean Literature refers to works created by writers from the Caribbean after gaining independence from colonial powers. These texts often explore themes of identity, culture, history, and the lasting effects of colonialism. Writers use diverse voices and styles, blending local languages and traditions with global influences. They address issues such as race, migration, and social justice, reflecting the rich and complex experiences of Caribbean societies. This literature serves not only as a means of expression but also as a way to reclaim and celebrate Caribbean heritage and to critique the legacies of colonial rule.
