"Edwidge Danticat's prolific body of work has established her as one of the most important
voices in 21st century literary culture. Across such novels as Farming the Bones and
Krik? Krak!, essays, journalism and writing for children, the Haitian American writer
has tackled such important contemporary themes as racism, anti-immigrant politics,
sexual violence and imperialism. With chapters written by leading and emerging international
scholars this is the most up-to-date and in-depth reference guide to 21st century
scholarship on Edwidge Danticat's work. The Bloomsbury Handbook to Edwidge Danticat
covers such topics as: The full range of Danticat's writing: from her novels and short
stories to essays, life writing and writing for children and young adults; Major interdisciplinary
scholarly perspectives: literary studies, politics, feminist and gender studies, race,
and ecocriticism; Danticat's literary sources: from Zora Neale Hurston and Audre Lorde
to Paule Marshall; Key contexts: Caribbean histories and cultures, experiences of
imperialism, migration and diaspora. The book also includes a comprehensive bibliography
of Danticat's work and key works of secondary criticism, as well as a new reflective
piece by Danticat herself"
