Abstract

[Like the mangroves stretching throughout the region, the regenerative effect of the female tradition on the larger Caribbean canon long went unrecognized. This tradition has now moved from the periphery to the center of the Caribbean literary arena. In fact, its irruption over the past three decades may well have been the major renovating force of Caribbean discourse. However, women writers continue to critique formulations of cultural identity, nationalism, and Caribbeanness, when these display an ongoing inattention to gender or a proclivity to crystallize. A shift from the rhizome to the mangrove as a paradigm allows for a better inclusion and evaluation of female voices in the Caribbean.]
