Writing

The book explores how Caribbean literature and cultural production respond to hurricanes, flooding, and transformations of the region’s environments. Moving across Anglophone, Hispanophone, and Francophone traditions, it examines relationships among literary form, lived experience, and the histories of colonialism that shape the Caribbean’s ecological present. Bringing Caribbean literary and cultural studies into conversation with the environmental humanities, the manuscript considers how creative works make environmental crises perceptible and illuminate questions of survival, habitation, and repair.
