Story
It is 1797, and the African kingdom of Segu, born of blood and violence, is at the height of its power. Yet Dousika Traore, the king's most trusted advisor, feels nothing but dread. Change is coming. From the East, a new religion, Islam. From the West, the slave trade. These forces will tear his country, his village and the lives of his beloved sons apart, in Maryse Condé's glittering epic.

Story
Fille de l'esclave Abena violée par un marin anglais à bord d'un vaisseau négrier, Tituba, née à la Barbade, est initiée aux pouvoirs surnaturels par Man Yaya, guérisseuse et faiseuse de sorts. Son mariage avec John Indien l'entraîne à Boston, puis au village de Salem au service du pasteur Parris. C'est dans l'atmosphère hystérique de cette petite communauté puritaine qu'a lieu le célèbre procès des sorcières de Salem en 1692. Tituba est arrêtée, oubliée dans sa prison jusqu'à l'amnistie générale qui survient deux ans plus tard.

Story
Esta novela, inscrita en la isla de en Guadalupe, los miembros de la comunidad de Rivière au Sel se congregan en el velorio de un personaje muerto sospechosamente, un extranjero, Francis Sancher. Una vez reunidos, sus voces, cada una diferente, cuentan un pedazo de la realidad guadalupeña al recordar la vida del difunto. Los prejuicios ante el extranjero ponen en evidencia la carne de la identidad guadalupeña. Las narrativas de esta novela son completas en sí mismas y a la vez son apenas una pieza de una realidad mayor. Esta novela es un rompecabezas antropológico y literario.

Story
La Guadeloupe des années cinquante. Contre des parents qui semblent surtout soudés par le mensonge, contre une mère aussi dure avec les autres qu'avec elle-même, contre un père timoré, la petite Maryse prend le chemin de la rébellion. La soif de connaissance, les rêves d'autonomie et de liberté la guident vers son destin d'écrivain. Mais peu à peu les épreuves de la vie appellent l'indulgence, la nostalgie de l'âme caraïbe restitue certains bonheurs de l'enfance.

Story
Le autobiografie finiscono troppo spesso col trasformarsi in opere di fantasia. L'essere umano sembra nutrire un tale desiderio di raffigurarsi una esistenza diversa da quella realmente vissuta, che finisce per abbellirla, spesso suo malgrado. "La vita senza fard" va dunque considerato un tentativo di dire le cose come stanno, rifiutando i miti e le facili e lusinghiere idealizzazioni.
