     An exceptional study of the immeasurable contribution that the children of the motherland have made to this religious persuasion over many centuries. Complementing an expansive compilation of profiles are excellent descriptions of the little known sacred texts from pristine Christian antiquity. This refreshing insight is destined to provide inspirational reading.

  " ...Of the fifteen publications which stand in his name, the latest to hand certainly would have the greatest universal appeal... The profiles give information not generally known. The notes, though brief, are quite illuminating and will surprise many by their unusual presentation...."

        This is a handy guide of up to date facts, maps and figures of the region. It is widely used across the world by academics, students and other readers as a reference text since it's first edition in the U.K. It unveils the true heritage of the CARIBBEAN . Issues addressed include Sustainable Development, Indigenous peoples, Original Island Names, Cultural Diversity and carefully examines the validity of the Peter's Projection of the World Map.

 
“...A strong sense of the region's history underpins the poet's responses to the vagaries of contemporary ‘politricks’. He is aware of  the long  shadow of colonialism that still affects Trinidadian society....  ‘JOB FOR THE HANGMAN ’ represent a kind of ‘grounding’ between the poet and his audience ... Kwabena, like other  poets of  this  tradition  across the Caribbean, seems to value the poem   primarily as an agent of dialogue- whether directly, as  in performance, or in terms of stirring his readers to debate among themselves...."

It is powerful and direct poetry but it also demonstrates his love of language, his excitement at the effects of language..."

    During the 1995 European lecture/Performance Tour, students of the Fachschaft Anglistik at the University of Augsburg in Bavaria presented Kwabena in a performance to celebrate the contribution of the Caribbean to the English language.  In co-operation with AFROETS PRESS those students also published this collection of selected poetry.
