This panel discusses the recent developments in French Caribbean poetry, fiction, and nonfiction, showing how literature continues to intersect with other political and artistic movements within the broader Afro-Atlantic context, forging new visions for the future by reconfiguring narratives of the past. Miguel Duplan (Martinique/Guyane), and Françoise James Ousénie (French Guyana) will combine brief readings from their works and discuss the niche that Caribbean writers occupy within the francophone world.
