Annie Paul @ Calabash Literary Festival

I wish I could have been there!

Annie Paul covers Derek Walcott s latest poem, "The Mongoose."

clipped from anniepaulactivevoice.blogspot.com “A mongoose charges dry grass and fades through a fence faster than an afterthought”. A beautiful line from pre-Calabash Walcott-- Calabash 2008 will always be remembered for Walcott’s stunning denouement: the reading in public for the first time of his poem, The Mongoose, written specifically with V.S. Naipaul in mind.
