2 vol. in-8 de VII 390 pp. et 394 pp., veau glacé de l'époque, dos lisse orné, pièces de titre, gardes intérieures renouvelées (accroc à la coiffe inférieure du tome I). Edition originale très rare (Bourquelot V, p. 346 - Vicaire V, p. 631). Outre-mer, publié en 1835 par le jeune auteur martiniquais Louis de Maynard de Queilhe, est un des premiers romans antillais. "Publié en 1835, ce texte vilipendé par les commentateurs du dix-neuvième siècle, et marginalisé par la critique contemporaine, le roman est cependant un très riche témoignage d'un moment crucial (1829-1831) dans l'histoire des Antilles françaises. Le texte reflète les préoccupations principales de la caste békée (Blanc créole), caste ébranlée par la révolution haïtienne, l'abolition de la traite en Angleterre, le déclin économique de l'empire français, et surtout, peut-être, par la position ambivalente du mulâtre dans une société de plus en plus «bigarrée».Outre-merévoque donc le profond sentiment d'insécurité éprouvé par un peuple en faillite économique et en sursis historique". "Vie et amours romanesques en Martinique, entre un maître blanc, une belle esclave noire et un mari mulâtre fort jaloux passant aux actes. L'auteur créole, mort en 1837 dans un duel au fusil avec son beau-frère, signa ici son unique roman sur fond de moeurs martiniquaises, en pleine époque romantique". Envoi autographe signé à Mr Lemonnier.
