  • Poui VI (December, 2004)
    INTRODUCTION For several reasons, Poui No. 6 seems like a very special issue: there are contributions from 31 writers, more than we have had in any of the previous issues, and as a consequence, this issue runs to 132 pages, the biggest yet. I do not have the impression that there were more submissions this year than in the past, but there certainly was more material of a quality suitable for inclusion, and this is certainly very gratifying for the editors who have to read all the submissions. There is a nice balance, in this issue, of poetry and prose fiction, with ten items in the latter category, accounting for about 50 out of the 114 pages of submitted material published – almost half. In addition most of the prose pieces (by Velma Pollard, Chip Livingstone, Debra Providence, Krishna Ramsumair, Robert Schmid and George Sammy) are powerful and very moving. As in recent years, we must thank our regular and committed contributors for continuing to send us their work; it is these faithful contributors who keep the annual publication going, although the exposure of their work is not as great as we all would like – many copies of past issues remain piled in the departmental store-room and we would welcome ideas and suggestions about how the publication might be more widely and more effectively marketed. We also welcome the fair number of new voices heard in Poui for the first time this year: we hope you will continue to support the publication with your contributions in coming years. Another reason why this issue is special is because we are privileged to include a recent poem by our own beloved Kamau Brathwaite, who has graciously served as Editorial Consultant to Poui from the first issue and who has kindly agreed to be our ‘Featured Poet’ in this issue.

  • Bookshelf 2020
    New West Indian Guide 95 (2021) 63–95 nwig brill.com/nwig Bookshelf 2020 Richard Price and Sally Price Coquina Key, Florida, USA [email protected]; www.richandsally.net This has been a most trying year for book reviewers. How many of the scholars we solicited answered that the unexpected demands of remote teach- ing, or the obligations of home schooling, or any other unusual responsibilities caused by Covid-19 made it impossible for them to write a review? And how many reviewers balked at (while others kindly acquiesced to) the new practice of many publishers sending out review copies exclusively in digital form? Another indicator of Covid-inspired chaos in the publishing industry?When we asked Palgrave/Springer (which publishes more of the books we review than any other publisher) to send a book, scheduled for July 2020 publication, to our reviewer, the following reply came back: “Unfortunately, … Decoloniality and Gender in Jamaica Kincaid and Gisèle Pineau, seems to have been massively postponed; the publication date appears to be 31 May 2025.” Publishers, with warehouses closed, or open only sporadically, have gener- ally done their best but here’s a list of books that we requested (almost all for Bookshelf) but never received: Nous n’avons pas vu passer les jours, by Simone Schwarz-Bart & Yann Plougastel (Paris: Grasset, 2019, paper €19.00) La Souvenance, by Ernest Pépin (Petit-Bourg, Guadeloupe: Caraïbéditions, 2019, paper €17.30) My Time Among the Whites: Notes from an Unfinished Education, by Jennine Capó Crucet (New York: Picador, 2019, paper US$17.00) Ordinary Girls: A Memoir, by Jaquira Díaz (New York: Algonquin Books, 2019, cloth US$26.95) Saint X: A Novel, by Alexis Schaitkin (New York: Celadon Books, 2020, cloth US$26.99) Shame on Me: An Anatomy of Race and Belonging, byTessa McWatt (London: Scribe UK, 2019, paper US$17.13) Bla_k:EssaysandInterviews, by M.
