As the child of Caribbean immigrants, I was lucky to grow up connected to the islands of my parents’ births. Annual trips to the Bahamas and Antigua instilled in me from a young age a love of warm, salty breezes, flavourful foods and irresistible rhythms that make me dance wherever I am. From the people, to the food, to the music and the languages, a kaleidoscope of vibrancy is abundant throughout Caribbean culture.
This October, as we celebrate Black History Month, we also reflect on the complex legacy of the generation of people who migrated from the Caribbean to the UK between 1948 and 1971. The diverse beauty of the islands and its people is evident in our collection of emerging and classic writers. Whether you’re from the islands, have simply visited, or are dreaming of the day you will, there’s something here for everyone. —Margaret Hargrove, Audible Editor
