With an introduction by Marlon James, So Many Islands brings together stories from the distant shores of the island communities in the Caribbean, Mediterranean, Indian Ocean and Pacific.
''This is the real globalism, a glorious cacophony that seeks no common ground other than attitude.'' Marlon James, winner of the Booker Prize

Alongside family politics, So Many Islands tackles nuclear testing and climate change global issues that are close to the heart of these precariously poised communities. Giving voice to their challenges and triumphs, these writers create a vibrant portrait of what it is like to live and love on the small islands they call home.
