Book Synopsis
Caribbean poets Walcott and Brathwaite took US poet Eliot (1888-1965) as a major, though not exclusive, model for what modernism was, says literature scholar Pollard (John Brown U.). They were coming into the prime of their writing careers as he was ending his, and the account here discusses borrowings and translations across generations, race, and conditions of previous colonialism.
