Bold, fierce, new voice in Contemporary Caribbean Fiction "Yuh Can't Stop de Carnival" takes us on an adventurous romp through the eyes of an intrepid West Indian woman who looks at life in the Caribbean through the urbane eyes of a foreigner but with the familiarity of a native. Maya Patel opens her dream café although the "knockoff Starbucks" is anything but a dream, and nightmares begin on day one with kitchen chaos leading to bootlegging on the high seas.This is a story about five fascinating, multicultural women who couldn't be more different from each other, yet they found common ground in love for each other and their fight for justice. The author presents the reader with a wonderfully accurate portrayal of living in everyone else's idea of paradise in this humorous and dark West Indian tale of love and adventure. Set against the backdrop of historical references to Carnival across the Caribbean, all presented in authentic West Indian banter, this story will make you laugh out loud and tug at your heartstrings at the same time.

"West Indian Literature, as a body of work, is a fairly recent phenomenon; and literary criticism has not always acknowledged the diversity of approaches to writing effectively. In Making West Indian Literature poet and critic Mervyn Morris explores examples of West Indian creativity shaping a range of responses to experience, which often includes colonial traces. Appreciating various kinds of making and a number of West Indian makers, these engaging essays and interviews display a recurrent interest in the processes of composition. Some of the prices highlight writer-performers who have not often been examined. This very readable book, often personal in tone, makes a distinctive contribution to the knowledge and understanding of West Indian Literature. "
