Dream on Monkey Mountain and Other Plays

A book I saw Kahil Gibran going into it and Mutabaruka coming out of it.Having seen snippets of the play adds a world of colour to the read.

I have long been a Walcott fan and this is a nice collection of his shorter plays. Nicely put together, good intro.

Derek Walcott is a master writer, just buy it without hesitation. I bought it, because of this and because of his love for my country Trinidad and Tobago.He was instrumental in establishing the Trinidad and Tobago theatre work shop, and was once married to a beautiful Trinidadian lady .

This was required for a theatre class. To get the full gist of this play you need to research African roots, myths, and superstitions. I Enjoyed it.

Read it for class

Great writing!

This collection of plays by Walcott illustrates why he won the Nobel Prize in Literature.

Timely deliver. Good condition.

Derek Walcott poetry devotees should buy this book for particularly important also is the introductory poetic-prose cultural essay ("Overture") by Walcot called "What the Twilight Says: An Overture" (38 pages) about (his experience in) the Caribbean Theater. Plays included in this book are: The Sea at Dauphin; Ti-Jean and His Brothers; Malcochon, or the Six in the Rain; Dream on Monkey Mountain.

It is very much a "Must read"

A good collection of walcott plays. Making a deep satire on colonialism.
