"Davis has not merely translated a great work of modernist poetry and an essential document in postcolonial history; he has created a present-day source of timely dissent." - David B. Hobbs (The Nation) "This is the best poem ever written." - Juliana Spahr (Artforum) "This edition is without a doubt destined to become a point of reference for every reader of the book as well as for those who dedicate their research to the work of AimÉ CÉsaire, and well beyond the English-speaking world." (translated from the French) - Giuseppe Sofo (Études Littéraires Africaines) "Unparalleled in mid-20th century French literature. . . ." - Tim Keane (Hyperallergic)
