This pioneering study surveys nineteenth- and twentieth-century narratives of the West Indies written by white women, English and Creole. It introduces a fascinating wealth of relatively unknown material and constitutes a timely interrogation of the supposed homogeneity of Caribbean discourse, especially with regard to 'race' and gender.

Evelyn O'Callaghan is a senior lecturer in English at the University of the West Indies, Barbados. Her publications include Woman Version: Theoretical Approaches to West Indian Fiction by Women (1993). She recently edited an early Antiguan novel, With Silent Tread by Frieda Cassin (2002).
