Books in the Ruth Simms Hamilton African Diaspora series

This volume comprises French versions and English translations of seven short stories written by Marie-Magdeleine Carbet, Martinique's most prolific woman writer. Four of these stories are previously unpublished, culled from documents obtained from Carbet's niece.

This book is the first to examine the intersection of black activism and the migration of Caribbeans and Africans to Paris during the post-World War II period.
