Sargasso Sea Scrolls

Sargasso Sea Scrolls takes us on an evocative journey to the Dutch Caribbean island of Curaçao, evoking slave experiences through historical remains, human memories, and the poet's own associations with his native West Africa and current homes in Puerto Rico and Canada. The poetry is often graphic, with lines in Spanish, and shows parallels in landscape, food, and language, between West Africa and the Caribbean.
