This paper discusses the work of Caribbean women writers produced both in the Caribbean nation-states and in the countries they migrated to. In identifying some of the major concerns presented in the narratives, it seeks to delineate their experiences as a gendered historical document which helps to understand more clearly the multifaceted movements of the Caribbean diaspora.
