We are truly honored to be in conversation with Evelyne Trouillot, celebrated as one of the key figures of today’s Caribbean literary landscape. She will be discussing her latest novel, Désirée Congo (Educa Vision), set in Saint Domingue shortly before the final defeat of Napoleon and the proclamation of the independence of Haiti. With its innovative polyphonic narrative technique, this novel beautifully testifies to Trouillot’s unique talent for blending history and fiction, the intimate and the collective. Kwazman Vwa’s Lucy Swanson and Jennifer Boum Make will be welcoming her for this event, which will be held via Zoom, on November 1 at 5:30 PM EST | 2:30 PM PST. RSVP below to receive a link.
