Woo-hoo! I’m in the Caribbean Review of Books!

by Nicolette Bethel on August 10, 2010

What’s the big deal?

Well, if you have to ask, you haven’t been seen the CRB. And you really don’t have any excuse; I’ve blogged about it, twice (or more). It’s not just that I finally finished the review that Nicholas invited me to do lo these many months ago. It’s also that I’m really stoked about who’s in the CRB today with me: Mark Dow, who’s got publication credits up the wazoo, the kind of credits that you have to don sunglasses to read.

And it’s a review of Sidney Mintz’s work, which makes me proud. Mintz made my anthropology — and my thought, and my national and regional pride too — what they are today.

So go on over and check it out. And while you’re at it, spend some time on the site. It’s worth it.

Simply brilliant. I must confess I had never heard of Sidney Mintz. Thank you for the introduction. Your review introduces us to a perspective of our collective Caribbean history that helps to explain the challenges we face in our contemporary condition. Thank you to for your contribution.
