Mahagony

The multiple narrators in this novel grapple with their unrecorded history on Martinique, first as slaves and then in relation to the wider world.

Romanele lui Édouard Glissant, strans legate de teoriile pe care le-a dezvoltat in Poétique de la Relation (Poetica a relatiei), sunt explorari bogate ale pierderii propriei istorii a unui popor deportat si colonizat si a efectelor sociale si politice in continua evolutie pe care le are acest sentiment cauzata in Martinica.
