Recensioner i media

This book must be read to be believed.... Surely it shouldn't be possible to tell the tortures of slavery in the manner of a fairy tale and still convey the extent of the atrocity.... Andre Schwarz-Bart can, and does make literature out of agony." —New York Times Book Review"A beautiful book, told in a dreamlike flow of images.... The work of a conscientious and gifted writer." —The New York Review of Books"Although written in a deceptively uncontrived style, this very powerful book brilliantly telescopes history and conveys all the breadth of emotion of a good epic poem." —The New Yorker
