Love for an Island: The Collected Poems of Phyllis Shand Allfrey

Love for an Island brings together the poems of Phyllis Shand Allfrey for the first time. Written over four decades, the collection reflects Allfrey's personal circumstances of place and politics (both tropical and temperate). Allfrey (1908-1986) was a white Dominican who defied her class and colour in her politics and her writing.
