'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.

It is a novel that touches raw nerves, that shocks, intrigues, cries out against injustice and engages the reader’s attention from the first page to the last.

In this ethnography of a contemporary community of professional poet-singers, Dwight Fletcher Reynolds reveals how the epic tradition continues to provide a context for social interaction and commentary.

The author explores in detail the narrative structure of the Sirat Bani Hilal as well as the tradition of epic-singing, and he pays particular attention to the relationship between ...
