Godmother of Caribbean literature, Marina Salandy-Brown, honorary fellow of Royal Society of Literature – Repeating Islands

[Many thanks to Peter Jordens for bringing this item to our attention.] Janine Mendes-Franco ( Global Voices) writes about Marina Salandy-Brown’s contributions to the arts and literary world, especially in the Anglophone Caribbean, and her recent recognition as Honorary Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature and as recipient of Chile’s inaugural Ferdinand Magellan Award for Innovation. For the last 10 years, Marina Salandy-Brown has been expanding the scope and reach of the NGC Bocas Lit Fest (named for its title sponsor, the National Gas Company of Trinidad and Tobago), now widely considered the Caribbean’s premier literary festival, but she’s been a reader all her life. Her passion for the region’s literature has now earned her an honorary fellowship in the Royal Society of Literature (RSL), which is celebrating its 200th anniversary this year.
