Between Totem and Taboo
Retired since 1998, Little (French, Trinity College Dublin) continues his steady output of books by picking through a minefield of prejudice, myth, and stereotypes in French writing primarily from France and her former colonies in Africa and the West Indies. Beginning two and half centuries ago with the first French novel to sport a black hero, he explores representations of intimate relationships between characters Europeans labeled as black men and white women.

Eating Well, Reading Well
While rejecting a conception of literature as moral philosophy, or a device for imparting particular morals to the reader through exemplary characters and plots, Maryse Conde has displayed throughout her writing career a strong valorization of literature as ethical critique. This study examines her singular approach to literary commitment as a critical reworking of aesthetic models and modes of interpretation. Focusing on four dominant problematics in Conde's work'history and globalization in La Belle Creole and Moi, Tituba sorciere...noire de Salem, intertextuality and reception in La migration des c'urs and Celanire cou-coupe, trauma and subjectivity in En attendant le bonheur and Desirada...
Gullible's Travels
Gullible's Travels: From Diaper Rash to Kissing Frogs is a compilation of 30 life stories. A young girl, born to parents who were products of the Depression, Deanna grew up and experienced life during a simpler time and in a simpler place, Horton, Kansas, in the late 1930's, 1940's and 1950's. The title, Gullible's Travels, comes from the author's recognized gullibility as illustrated numerous times through her stories. Gullible's stories are amusing and sentimental in her journey through life. Some may even bring a tear to your eye. Like Stories of Old, each life story includes a moral, message, or lesson learned by Deanna as a result of her Travels. The subtitle for Book One, From Diaper Rash to Kissing Frogs, reflects Deanna's early life experiences from birth through her teen years. Book One is followed chronologically by three companion books-each reflecting approximately 20 years of the author's life.
Robin Hood

Postcolonial Echoes and Evocations
This work is a sedulous enquiry into the intertextual practice of Maryse Condé in Moi, Tituba, sorcière... noire de Salem (1986), Traversée de la mangrove (1989) and La Migration des coeurs (1995), the texts of her oeuvre in which the practice is the most elaborate and discursively significant. Arguing that no satisfactory reading of these novels is possible without due intertextual reference and interpretation, the author analyses salient intertexts which flesh out and, in the case of Traversée de la mangrove, shed considerable new light on meaning and authorial discourse. Whether it be in respect of canonical (William Faulkner, Emily Brontë, Nathaniel Hawthorne), postcolonial (Aimé C...
