Setting out at elucidating these concerns with nature, culture, and spatiality, this paper offers an ecocritical reading of the work of Monique Roffey, a contemporary British-Caribbean writer who turns a delicate eye to nature in all of her noticeably green novels. These concerns have also found their way into literary studies in the form of ecocriticism, which provides a look at the way in which writers engage with environmental problems, nature, and place in literary texts.

The relationship between humans and nature has never been more topical than at present, with environmental problems being an urgent twenty-first century concern.
