McCallum talks about the influence of Derek Walcott's poetry on his own poems. Walcott is a totemic figure and one with whom many Caribbean poets, rightly or wrongly, at some point are compared or compare themselves. He declines to place himself as the single progenitor of the Caribbean poetic tradition, but even he has had to admit that he has been instrumental in creating it and will have a notable influence on those who come after him.
Remarkably, his voice continues to deepen, a basso profundo if there ever was one. And one of the great pleasures of [Leonard Cohen]: I'm Your Man is hearing the songs done by other, higher voices - Martha Wainwright's plaintive beseeching on "The Traitor," Rufus Wainwright's up-tempo tenor on "Everybody Knows," Antony's piercing vibrato on the newly androgynous "If It Be Your Will."

Even in invoking the spiritual as a field articulated through cultural differences, and in so doing attempting to displace dominant Christian notions of the spiritual while addressing the fear of politically regressive essentialisms, to speak about the s/Spirit and the spiritual in U.S. culture is risky business that raises anxieties of different sorts.3 In short, references to spirit, souls, th...
