Presents a comparative study of Caribbean and Pacific Island literatures. This book looks at the sea as history in literatures of the Atlantic middle passage and Pacific Island voyaging, theorizing the transoceanic imaginary. It then turns to the land to examine indigenous epistemologies in nation-building literatures.
