Kwazman Vwa is looking forward to being in conversation with Chris T. Bonner, who is Assistant Professor at Texas A&M University, and who very recently published Cold War Negritude, Form and Alignment in French Caribbean Literature, with Liverpool University Press. His monograph is the first book-length study of francophone Caribbean literature as it unfolded during the global Cold War. It traces the trajectories of three canonical, politically engaged figures of French Caribbean letters, René Depestre, Aimé Césaire, and Jacques-Stephen Alexis, as they wrote and imagined Caribbean modernity against the bipolar backdrop of a divided world order. This conversation will be held in English. Please, use the form below to register.
