This 228-page combination of interviews and commentary provides a practical guide for those involved in the pedagogy of literature which is the primary objective. But it also presents a powerful argument for studying and teaching literature at all levels of the education system. And even though the focus is on literature, readers will discover that many of the principles and strategies that can be distilled from the interviews are applicable to other disciplines as well. The eighteen interviewees are drawn from a variety of backgrounds – nationality, location, age, pedagogical training, level of the education system at which they operate. They all describe their experiences with literature, their approaches to teaching in their distinct voices, but certain key commonalities can be distilled from this variety.

This Art Deco celebration of flora and fauna in green and blue was originally drawn by the German doctor, zoologist and philosopher Ernst Haeckel and published in his Art Forms in Nature (orig. Kunstformen der Natur) in the year 1904.1 Haeckel’s drawings served to capture the beauty, diversity and specificity of exotic birds in their natural habitat. Created in the historical period of Art Deco, the drawings also reveal a fascination with fleetingness, surfaces and decorations. It may appear unusual, to say the least, to adorn the book cover of a Caribbean writer’s short stories with the drawing of a German natural scientist created during the height of European colonisation. Yet a closer look reveals that this collection offers an intricate play with covers, cloaks and masks. The idea of revealing as hiding, of insight as projection, is part and parcel of its playful prose. The Dreaming presents twelve short stories, many of which have never been published before. These stories are set mostly in contemporary Trinidad, while the story “1960” plays in the year described by the title and “Preludes” describes the protagonist’s temporary sojourn in London, England, before his eventual return to Trinidad. Migration is a common experience in Caribbean societies. Most stories, in fact, include important contemporary challenges, such as the struggle of Venezuelans escaping dictatorship and hoping for refugee status in Trinidad in “Haircuts”, the global COVID-19 pandemic in “Hunger” among others, pollution of nature in “The Forest Ranger”, single-parent households in “Belmont”, and questions of desire and safety of LGBTQI-identified people in several stories including “Not Looking”. These elements are not just mentioned in passing like the news ticker of popular TV channels, but instead presented as fundamental challenges that","PeriodicalId":35039,"journal":{"name":"Caribbean Quarterly","volume":"69 1","pages":"313 - 316"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48004927","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
