A Poetics of Performance: The Oral-Scribal Aesthetics in Anglophone Caribbean Fiction

Explores the impact of orature-performance on Caribbean prose fiction. Arguing that orature-performance is the structuring device for many contemporary novels and short stories, this work extends the critical consensus that Caribbean oral modes infuse all genres of literature from the region.
