CCC Press (www.cccpress.co.uk) is showcasing new writing in English from around the world in their new series of country anthologies. The World Englishes Literature (Fiction) series (www.new-ventures.net) has so far published anthologies of stories from Cameroon, Nigeria, Uganda, Kenya and Malaysia. The anthologies focus on the production of new writing in English or local Englishes, which is edited and presented with a critical introduction. This is a call for the projected collection from Jamaica, the Bahamas, Trinidad and Tobago, and Barbados.
