Migrant Brothers Résumé

Migrant Brothers: A Poet's Declaration of Human Dignity Patrick Chamoiseau

If justice had a Jericho trumpet, Chamoiseau would be it.-Junot Diaz

As migrants embark on perilous journeys across oceans and deserts in pursuit of sanctuary and improved living conditions, what is the responsibility of those safely ensconced in the nations they seek to enter? Moved by repeated tragedies among immigrants attempting to enter eastern and southern Europe, Patrick Chamoiseau assails the hypocrisy and detachment that allow these events to happen. Migrant Brothers is an urgent declaration of our essential interconnectedness that asserts the necessity to understand one another as part of one human community, regardless of national origin.

Migrant Brothers Avis

[Chamoiseau] writes in a Creolised French all of his own. His short, lyrical book, Migrant Brothers. . . looks for a framework of thinking that might give our consciousness a jolt. . . to offer a manifesto 'for a global humanity'.-Tim Adams, Observer

Chamoiseau is an absolute necessity. In this extraordinary volume on the migrant crisis, you will find all 'unpredictable brilliance of beauty' but also one of our greatest living writers fighting to find, to illuminate, to summon from our political darkness 'another vision of the world and its future.' If justice had a Jericho trumpet, Chamoiseau would be it.-Junot Diaz

We are all nomadic creatures, and few of us can trace our roots singly to the place where we now happen to live. Today, perhaps more than ever, Chamoiseau's eloquent plea to recognize the plight of our fellow exiles is essential reading. This is an incandescent, necessary book for our heartless times.-Alberto Manguel

Chamoiseau is a writer who has the sophistication of the modern novelist, and it is from that position (as an heir of Joyce and Kafka) that he holds out his hand to the oral prehistory of literature.-Milan Kundera

Chamoiseau's characters are not only names but beings. Their conduct is drawn from the complexities of sensation rather than of action. We inhabit them naturally, their rages that roar like a rainstorm through a ravine, their sense of insult as sensitive as those weeds that close like shutters.-Derek Walcott, New York Review of Books

Mr. Chamoiseau is a writer of exceptional and original gifts whose prose is saturated in a kind of bemused gorgeousness, fermented in a broth of unexpected juxtapositions.-Richard Bernstein, New York Times
