Originally published in 1939, AimÉ CÉsaire’s Cahier d’un retour au pays natal is a landmark of modern French poetry and a founding text of the NÉgritude movement. This bilingual edition features a new authoritative translation, revised introduction, and extensive commentary, making it a magisterial edition of CÉsaire’s surrealist masterpiece.
AimÉ CÉsaire (1913–2008) was a Martinican poet, critic, essayist, playwright, and statesman; a founder of the NÉgritude movement; and one of the most influential Francophone Caribbean intellectuals of the twentieth century.
