Introduction: The Epistemology of the Mangrove -- 1. Jose Marts Foundational Failure -- 2. Lost Idyll: Mayotte Capcia's "Je suis Martiniquaise" -- 3. Replaced Origins: Maryse Cond's "Moi Tituba sorcirenoire de Salem" -- 4. Plotting Desire between Girls: Jamaica Kincaid's" At the Bottom of the River" -- 5. Sexual Alternatives in Patricia Powell's "Me Dying Trial" -- 6. The Love of Neighbors: Rosario Ferre's "Eccentric Neighborhoods/Vecindarios eccentricos" -- Conclusion.

Relations between women - like the branches and roots of the mangrove - twist around, across, and within others as they pervade Caribbean letters. While relations between women are incorporated into the novels of Jose Marte, Mayotte Capcia, Maryse Cond, Jamaica Kincaid, Patricia Powell, and Rosario Ferre, little has been written about them. "Desire between Women in Caribbean Literature" elucidates the place of desire between women in Caribbean literature, compelling readers to rethink how we read the structures as well as the practices of sexuality.
