A tree cannot keep secrets because its roots discreetly meet those of other trees and share its thoughts. Adelise, a young girl trapped working in the cane fields of Martinique, keeps confidence with the flowering mangrove in her backyard. Her strict and watchful mother says Adelise is a dragonfly, refusing to learn that life is not a game. When she is transplanted to the dangerous and politically restive capital, Fort-de-France, her aunt introduces her to the unsavoury business of nightlife among the Mulatto elite, and Adelise comes to rely even more on her elaborate system of wistful detachment from her body.

hardcover. Etat : Very Good in Dustjacket. Etat de la jaquette : Very Good. First Edition. New York. 2000. Farrar Straus Giroux. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Dustjacket. 0374199329. Translated from the French by Linda Coverdale. 169 pages. hardcover. Jacket art - 'Laetitia' by Catherine Theodose. keywords: Caribbean Martinique Literature Translated World Literature. DESCRIPTION - Adelise is a girl trapped working in the cane fields of Martinique. Yearning for communication, she confides in the mysterious flowering tree in her backyard; her mother calls her a dragonfly, for she refuses to settle down and learn that life is not a game. When Adelise is forced to move from her village to Fort-de-France, the island's politically restive capital, her aunt introduces her to the unsavory business of nightlife among the mulatto elite, and she comes to rely even more on an elaborate system of detachment from her body. 'Raphael Confiant has incontestably become a principal character in French literary history,' a reviewer for Le Monde observed. 'One is struck by the luminous intelligence of his insights, by the wit of his dialogue, by his soaring lyricism.' MAMZELLE DRAGONFLY, the first of Confiant's books to be published in English, is a vivid and intimately affecting novel; its spare style is reminiscent of Cristina Garcia's, while its fiercely independent heroine brings to mind those in Edwidge Danticat's fiction, it is a nostalgic and erotic story, and also a sophisticated look at modern Martinique. inventory #28232.
