View full profile →

Derek Walcott (1930–2017) was a Saint Lucian poet, playwright, and Nobel laureate in Literature (1992), celebrated for his epic works like 'Omeros' that fuse Caribbean history, colonial legacy, and classical mythology. He co-founded the Trinidad Theatre Workshop and taught at Boston University, exploring themes of identity, language, and cultural hybridity through a lyrical, imagistic style.
