This Writers’ Series title features a representative selection of critical and scholarly essays on the writing of Dionne Brand, as well as an introduction and brief biography, and a thorough bibliography, as well as contributions from Brand herself: a pivotal interview from 2000, and her 2017 EJ Pratt lecture. The collection strives to be representative in several ways. First, the selections taken together deal with almost all of Brand’s works. Second, the selections represent a range of voices and expertise, with selections from internationally renowned critics and established scholars of national repute as well as emerging scholars. The selections also strive for equity, prioritizing the contributions of Black, women, feminist, and queer critics and scholars.
