" The real strength of his work lies in its close reading of canonical francophone Caribbean texts."
--Research in African Literatures

" This book contributes significantly to the study of Francophone Caribbean literature. Larrier skillfully and convincingly addresses the issues of self-representation, advocacy, and identity through pertinent examples of autofictions that challenge our understanding of Martinican, Guadeloupean and Haitian societies' complex forces."
--French Review

" Excellent close-text studies of contemporary novels, the strength of the study being reinforced by a thoroughly researched context. Every good library should have this study in its collection, and it should also be on every serious Caribbean scholar's shelves."
