George Lamming was among a generation of post-World War II writers from the West Indies who came of age under British rule. Lamming had a broad, connective vision he would say was inspired in part by the Trinidadian historian-activist C.L.R. James. Lamming received his greatest acclaim for “In the Castle of My Skin,” its title is drawn from an early poem by Nobel laureate Derek Walcott.
