Talk Dat Talk

0/5 ( ratings)

Talk Dat Talk is Miguel Browne's second collection of dialect poetry and monologues, following his successful first collection, Trini Talk . In this collection, the creole vernacular is used not only to celebrate our colourful words and expressions in "Proverbs" and "De Creole Tongue" but also to pry, probe and explore a whole range of social issues: the gambling craze in "Whe Whe"; the need for cultural preservation in "Folk For de Folks" and "Crossover"; the environmental concerns in "Papa Bois and Mama Glo" and the advent of the computer age in "Buttons and Cards". The works are all characteristic of a style in which the wit and humour synonymous with the West Indian oral traditions are used a medium to engage in thought provoking commentary about everyday life experiences and the West Indian psyche, itself.
