Edited by Nicholas Laughlin with Nailah Folami Imoja, with an introduction by Marlon James, winner of the 2015 Man Booker Prize.
Collecting new fiction, essays, and poems from seventeen countries around the world, So Many Islands brings us stories about love and protest, about childhood innocence and the traumas of history, about leaving home and trying to go home again. These writers's island homes may seem remote on the map, but there is nothing isolated about their compelling, fresh voices.
So Many Islands is the fourth publication of Peekash Press, an imprint of Akashic Books and Peepal Tree Press, committed to supporting the emergence of new Caribbean writing, and as part of the CaribLit project.
