Sir Derek Alton Walcott KCSL OBE OM OCC (23 January 1930 – 17 March 2017) was a Saint Lucian poet and playwright.. He received the 1992 Nobel Prize in Literature. [1] His works include the Homeric epic poem Omeros (1990), which many critics view "as Walcott's major achievement."
Stephen Breslow of University of Tampa had since the mid-1980s predicted that Walcott would become a Nobel laureate in literature and explained that the likely reasons why Swedish Academy chose Derek Walcott was because his work had "a strong regional voice that transcends its topical locality, through the depth and breadth of its poetic resonance and through its global human implication."
