The depth of his discourse and the scope of his subject matters give his short stories [...] a universal, yet unique, character that goes well beyond the boundaries boundaries of a Caribbean readership."—Michela A.

Poetry. Caribbean Studies. Latino/Latina Studies. African & African American Studies. "An important new work of world literature... an ambitious book."—Xu Xi "BOOK OF THE DEAD risks a new kind of pan-Caribbean poetry. It is not merely that it reaches into the entire region's space and history. Its verse plays with the whole Caribbean language spectrum: here fragments in Spanish, there across the Afro-English spectrum, to scraps of French, Dutch, Haitian, and Papiamento. Sekou weaves a world of Antillean thought around his anchorage in St. Martin."—Richard Drayton, King's College London

Book of The Dead

Poetry

<p>Poetry. Caribbean Studies. Latinx Studies. African &amp; African American Studies. "There is a raw urgency to these poems within the 'protocol' set, the 'name' of each echoes marine distress-calling, a plea to humanity; recounting the travails during the super-storms Irma and Maria...the unprecedented level of destruction that the storms wrought on the poet's home island of St. Martin, and on neighboring Caribbean countries and territories. This poetry is about prevailing over adversity and about resiliency to disaster."--Margaret Matz, Il Tolomeo (Vol. 20), Italy</p>
