Recenzii
"Lisa Tomlinson's new book, The African-Jamaican Aesthetic: Cultural Retention and Transformation Across Borders, adds to the body of research examining the ways in which diasporic African-Jamaican writers create their works by tapping into the cultural aesthetics of their African and Caribbean roots to interpret their place in their new homes and local cultures abroad."
- Neil Armstrong in the Jamaica Gleaner, 13 August 2017
"Undoubtedly, Lisa Tomlinson’s The African-Jamaican Aesthetic will become a crucial text for students and scholars working on Jamaican literature. Thanks to the author’s inclusion of such literary artists as Haitian American Edwidge Danticat, Trinidadian Merle Hodge, and African Americans Toni Morrison and Zora Neale Hurston, this monograph will familiarise readers with the similarities, differences, and cultural exchanges between black women’s writing in the Americas more generally. In addition, Tomlinson’s meticulous exploration of Claude McKay’s work will prove of interest for specialists. Perhaps most importantly, it will compellingly assert McKay’s importance in understanding African-Jamaican literature."
