hardcover. 1st edition. New York. 1973. Atheneum. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Slightly Worn Dustjacket. Translated from the French by Ralph Manheim. 181 pages. hardcover. Jacket design by Paul Bacon. keywords: Literature Translated France . FROM THE PUBLISHER - Like THE LAST OF THE JUST, which traced the continuity of the Jewish experience of martyrdom, A WOMAN NAMED SOLITUDE recreates, through fact and myth, a people's enslavement and humiliation, and the survival of their dignity in spite of everything. AndrE Schwarz-Bart begins his novel in West Africa with the story of Bayangumay, a child learning the ways of her Diola culture, The tone changes drastically when the village is ransacked and the surviving members, including Bayangumay, are forced aboard a slave ship bound for the New World. Bayangumay arrives there to give birth to a mulatto child conceived aboard ship. That child is Solitude. Her life of enslavement and diaspora in the islands is the story of one of the most beautiful heroines of the black world, one of the purest heroines, perhaps, in man's history. Each word is a drop of sweat, a bloody tear wrenched from himself . A WOMAN NAMED SOLITUDE is not only a beautiful novel, it is the act of love of a man who chooses the camp of the victims and who atones for a crime that others have committed.' - L'Express. inventory #6471 Very Good in Slightly Worn Dustjacket.

Book
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Conceived aboard a slave ship bound for the Caribbean, Solitude was born into slavery and sold on the auction block, a black chattel of a corrupt society until she heard the ringing of rebellion on the island wind. Schwarz-Bart, author of The Last of the Just, and whose own terrible experiences in Nazi-occupied Europe here find a clear if distant echo, offers a sensitive and impassioned portrait of a woman and her race, fallen victim to the inhumanity of humankind. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
