This near definitive study sets a new standard for the kind of meticulous scholarship that Nobel laureate Derek Walcott's poetry deserves. Another Life, Walcott's masterpiece of autobiography in verse has of course been widely praised. (D.J. McClatchy, for example, writing in The New Republic, called it “one of the best long autobiographical poems in English, with the narrative sweep, the lavish layering of details, and the mythic resonance of a certain classic.”) It is also, though, an ideal point of entry into Walcott's work.
