Kendel Hippolyte (Castries, Santa Lucía) es poeta, dramaturgo y director de teatro. Su obra poética, cifrada en siete libros de poesía, así como su trabajo en el ámbito teatral, le han valido amplio reconocimiento tanto dentro como fuera del Caribe. Se ha hecho acreedor del Premio OCM Bocas for Caribbean Literature por su poemario Fault Lines y de la Medalla del Mérito otorgada por el gobierno de Santa Lucía por la totalidad de su labor.
Todo esto es lenguaje reúne algunos de los más notables poemas que componen la obra de Kendel Hippolyte. Sus textos recorren problemáticas agudas, urgentes, como nuestra relación con la historia y su amplio catálogo de crueldades, nuestro vínculo truncado con la naturaleza o la necesidad acuciante de asumir nuestra herencia compleja para asimilarla y sanearla. Hippolyte cree en la poesía como medio para comprender el pasado y para construir el futuro: todo este lenguaje está puesto al servicio del porvenir.
