3.0 out of 5 stars Major error in product description, Feb 18 2010

By M. McGinley - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Derek Walcott (Hardcover)

I haven't read this book, but Harold Bloom's critique of Walcott would certainly be valuable. What I'm objecting to is that the product description suggests that Walcott is an American author, when he is, in fact, from Trinidad. Although he has spent significant time teaching in the USA, his Caribbean roots are central to his work. Readers should not be misled by such a sloppy error.
