Examines sexualities, violence, and repression in the Caribbean experience. Analysing the sexual norms and expectations portrayed in Caribbean and diaspora literature, music, film, and popular culture, Rosamond King skilfully demonstrates how many individuals contest traditional roles by manoeuvring within and/or trying to change their society's binary gender systems.
