A rare example of this Bronx-based "Review of Political, Economic, Literary, Social and Cultural Affairs of the Caribbean", edited by Selwyn Cudjoe, a noted Trinidadian academic, scholar, historian, essayist and editor who is Professor of Africana Studies at Wellesley College. Hoping to "act as a vehicle for the propogation and dissemination of views on the Caribbean in the area of politics, culture, economics, literature and social thought, shaping sensibilities, giving direction and allowing for the largest possibility of divergence of views", the magazine appears to have put forth one volume in three issues. Notably includes a paper by scholar Leonard Harris on the crisis of inequality in a decolonizing Dominica. 7.5" x 10.25" softcover book, saddle-stapled in card wraps. 32pp. From the collection of a tobacco smoker, with attendant tanning to covers and very little if any aroma of smoke to book interior. Book in protective mylar dustjacket. Shelfwear mild and unremarkable saving a small bump / lower corner crease to all pages and covers. Pages quite bright. Soundly bound. Sharp copy.
