This course seeks to explore visions of the metropole in Caribbean and U.S. Caribbean cultures. To what extent do real-and-imagined urban spaces constitute a site of containment, possibility, uneven development, hybridity and/or homogenizing hegemony in Caribbean cultural production? How does desire interact with urban spaces in Caribbean cultures? What are the spaces of queer Caribbean desire and how are these spaces narrated/represented in contemporary literary and cultural production?
