These poems wander through life and memory. They explore art, music, and history, but in an atmosphere of subtropical wonder. Beauty and truth are close relations and the author explores both as memories of an earlier Florida compose a world of recall and invitation.

Derek Walcott was aptly described by Laurence Liberman in The Yale Review as "one of the handful of brilliant historic mythologists of our day." Sea Grapes deepens with this major poet's search for true images of the post-Adamic "new world"--especially those of his native Caribbean culture. Walcott's rich and vital naming of the forms of island life is complemented by poems set in America and England, by inward-turning meditations, and by invocations of other poets--Osip Mandelstam, Walt Whitman, Frank O'Hara, James Wright, and Pablo Neruda. On the publication of Selected Poems in 1963, Robert Graves wrote, "Derek Walcott handles English with a closer understanding of its inner magic than most (if not any) of his English-born contemporaries." This collection of new poems in every way confirms Walcott's mastery. He is also the author of The Gulf, Dream on Monkey Mountain and Other Plays, and Another Life.

This is the black and white interior version of Sea Grapes and Kennips in which the author of Time Longa' Dan Twine presents another intimate look at the history of the Virgin Islands, here pursuing the long past of the town of Christiansted and the stories of some of the people who lived and died there. The reader will be surprised to read that the town is older than the great majority of American cities and towns, that it has been occupied by no less than seven different nations, and that at one time it served as the capital of the Danish West Indies. Equally fascinating are the chapters on the broad variety of people who at one time or another called the town home-Dove Braffith, perhaps the greatest of the island's painters; Adrian Bentzon, a governor of many talents and curious adventures; Ralph de Chabert, a labor leader and outstanding journalist; Fritz Henle, a world-class photographer; Charles Blair and Maureen O'Hara and their Antilles Airboats airlines that connected the islands of the Virgin group; and Socha Svender, a sculptress of fascinating creations. In addition, this work includes accounts of the lives of Ward Canaday, American industrialist and Crucian farmer; Frederik "Africanus" Svane, a Danish-African who left his home on the Gold Coast to serve in the household of Ludvig von Holberg, Denmark's greatest writer; Wulff Joseph Wulff, a Dane who lived his life and founded a family on the African Gold Coast; and Juan Garrido, perhaps the first African to set foot on St. Croix who later rode at the side of Hern�n Cortes as he conquered Mexico. Also there are stories of local Pirates, Maroons, Jumbies, Carib Indians, and Obeah, along with a sketch of Virgin Islands culture. Attention is given to the recent Palestinian immigrants to these islands and to the complex relationship among Anna Heegaard, Peter von Scholten, and Anna's present Danish descendents. Finally, the author revisits the controversial question of the Columbus landing at Salt River in 1493. This book opens the door for the curious newcomer to the Virgin Islands who desires to become acquainted with these endlessly fascinating islands, and at the same time, it provides new insights to those long familiar with the local culture and history.

A woman searches for a fresh start on a remote Caribbean island in this sequel to Rosamond Lehmann’s classic The Ballad and the Source The year is 1933. After a heart-wrenching betrayal by her married lover, Rebecca Landon leaves London for a tiny island in the Caribbean. There, she meets a colony of expatriates, including the voluble Captain Cunningham and his wife, Ellie, who were the first white settlers on the isle. She also meets Johnny, a married former pilot who was crippled in the war and now lives as a recluse. Drawn together by their mutual pain and sorrow, he and Rebecca are soon swept into a passionate affair. But there’s yet another presence on the island: the spirit of Sibyl Jardine, a scandalous beauty who fascinated Rebecca as a child and has left an unforgettable mark on the woman Rebecca has become. Mrs. Jardine also came to this remote island to escape, and before she died, she forged a powerful connection with Johnny. Does her ghost still cast a shadow over the island’s inhabitants? What is her unfinished business and what is she trying to communicate to Rebecca and Johnny? Or is it Rebecca who is trying to communicate something, driven by her own need for closure? This is a poignant, uplifting novel about the lives we leave behind, our eternal quest for love, and the answers we seek when our faith is shaken.
