The only real difficulty facing such crossings is the ever-resent language barriers that have for too long limited the ways in which the Caribbean is read, perceived and interpreted. What is distinctive about this work is its trilingual nature: all of the stories appear in English, French and Spanish. The anthology includes stories from Guadeloupe (Gisele Pineau), Trinidad (Shani Mootoo), Haiti (Yanick Lahens), Jamaica (Oliver Senior), Puerto Rico (Carmen Lugo Filippi) and Cuba (Mirta Yanez). Many stories in the collection do not offer the reader a comforting end. Instead, they suggest the possibilities and the complexities of depicting a Caribbean, not singular but plural, not closed but open-ended and decidedly one without borders. 650 0 $a Short stories, Caribbean. 650 0 $a Short stories, Caribbean (English) $v Translations into French. 650 0 $a Short stories, Caribbean (English) $v Translations into Spanish. 650 0 $a Short stories, Caribbean (French) $v Translations into English. 650 0 $a Short stories, Caribbean (French) $v Translations into Spanish. 650 0 $a Short stories, Caribbean (Spanish) $v Translations into English. 650 0 $a Short stories, Caribbean (Spanish) $v Translations into French. 650 0 $a Caribbean fiction $x Women authors. 650 0 $a Women authors, Caribbean. 650 7 $a Schriftstellerin. $2 gnd 650 7 $a Frauenliteratur. $2 gnd 650 7 $a Kurzgeschichte. $2 gnd 650 7 $a Englisch. $2 gnd 650 7 $a FranzoÌsisch. $2 gnd 650 7 $a Spanisch. $2 gnd 651 7 $a Karibik. $2 gnd 650 7 $a Caribbean fiction $x Women authors. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00847458 650 7 $a Short stories, Caribbean. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01117134 650 7 $a Short stories, Caribbean (English) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01117135 650 7 $a Short stories, Caribbean (French) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01117137 650 7 $a Short stories, Caribbean (Spanish) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01737548 650 7 $a Women authors, Caribbean. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01177237 655 7 $a Translations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423791 700 1 $a Roberts, Nicole, $d 1961- 700 1 $a Walcott-Hackshaw, Elizabeth. 941 $a 2 952 $l N2AX314 $d 20210728020103.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20180131015431.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=416A6C2CF2C011E39C224C92DAD10320 994 $a C0 $b DIVInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
