Description
Pocomania and London Calling by Una Marson
A landmark collection of plays from one of Jamaica's most important feminists and dramatists, long overdue for publication. Pocomania is a seminal Caribbean play that heralded a new era of Jamaican drama, tackling the complexities of culture, language, and identity with unflinching honesty.
These two plays explore the tensions between prejudice and the performance of blackness, as well as class, race, gender, and language in early twentieth century London. A powerful and thought-provoking work that grapples with the anxieties of a bygone era.
