Deze roman van wanhoop, haat en liefde vult het dagboek van Agnes dEsternay. Ze vlucht, tijdens de protestantenvervolging in Frankrijk, met twee zusters en een zwager naar Suriname, waar ze een leven hoopt te vinden van recht, gelijkheid en vrijheid voor iedereen. Ze kopen een plantage die ze `Bel-Exil noemen en beginnen de strijd tegen het oerwoud. Aanvankelijk schijnen ze die strijd te zullen winnen, maar steeds meer vervagen hun idealen, verzwakt hun weerstand, kwijnen ze weg in die laaiende stilte. De trotse neger Isidoor speelt een belangrijke rol op de plantage, in het hart van Agnes én in het dagboek. De oogst mislukt, de negerslaven worden ziek, anderen sterven of lopen weg, Isidoor wordt doodgeranseld. Het oerwoud herneemt meer en meer zijn rechten. Met de jaren leert Agnes afscheid te nemen van haar jeugd, van haar idealen, van haar onbeantwoorde liefdes, aanvaardt ze het lot van vrouw-alleen. Ze maakt zich losser van mensen en dingen en als haar ene zuster gestorven is en de andere het zo vurig begeerde kind verwacht, waardoor zij en haar man besluiten terug te gaan naar de bewoonde wereld, gaat Agnes mee. Ze is dan een uitgebrande oude vrouw, die in de geest achterblijft op de eenzame plantage, dicht bij de plek van de sterke Isidoor, die ze, doordat ze het moment van de keuze voorbij liet gaan, nooit heeft mogen liefhebben zoals ze dat gewild en gedroomd heeft; waarmee haar leven zijn vervulling zou hebben gevonden.

The Caribbean imagination as framed within a Dutch historical setting has deep Portuguese-African roots. The Seven Provinces were the first European power, in the first half of the 17th century, to challenge the Iberian countries directly for a share in the slave trade. This book analyzes the philosophy underlying this transoceanic link, when contacts with Africa started to be developed. The ambiguous morality of the `air of liberty? governing the Afro-Portuguese past had its impact on the creole cultures (white, black, Jewish) of the Dutch territories of Suriname and Curacao. Although this influence is gradually disappearing, it is astonishing to witness the engagement with which writers and visual artists have interpreted this heritage in their different ways. Recent narratives from Angola and Brazil offer an appropriate starting-point for an examination of strategies of self-representation and national consolidation in works by authors from the Dutch Caribbean. In order to reveal this complex historical pattern, the (formerly) Dutch-related port communities are conceived of as cultural agents whose `lettered cities? (Angel Rama) have engaged in critical dialogue with the heritage of the South Atlantic trade in human lives.Artists and writers discussed include (colonial period): Caspar Barlaeus, David Nassy, Frans Post, and John Gabriel Stedman; (modern period): Frank Martinus Arion, Cola Debrot, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Albert Helman, Francisco Herrera Luque, Boeli van Leeuwen, Tip Marugg, Alberto Mussa, Pepetela, Julio Perrenal, and Mario Pinto de Andrade.'This is a notable achievement, for it both draws attention to the region and challenges critics and historians to engage in cross-regional and `trans-disciplinary' research and analysis? ?

For the first time the Dutch-speaking regions of the Caribbean and Suriname are brought into fruitful dialogue with another major American literature, that of the anglophone Caribbean. The results are as stimulating as they are unexpected. The editors have coordinated the work of a distinguished international team of specialists. Read separately or as a set of three volumes, the History of Literature in the Caribbean is designed to serve as the primary reference book in this area. The reader can follow the comparative evolution of a literary genre or plot the development of a set of historical problems under the appropriate heading for the English- or Dutch-speaking region. An extensive index to names and dates of authors and significant historical figures completes the volume. The subeditors bring to their respective specialty areas a wealth of Caribbeanist experience. Vera M. Kutzinski is Professor of English, American, and Afro-American Literature at Yale University. Her book Sugar’s Secrets: Race and The Erotics of Cuban Nationalism, 1993, treated a crucial subject in the romance of the Caribbean nation. Ineke Phaf-Rheinberger has been very active in Latin American and Caribbean literary criticism for two decades, first at the Free University in Berlin and later at the University of Maryland. The editor of A History of Literature in the Caribbean, A. James Arnold, is Professor of French at the University of Virginia, where he founded the New World Studies graduate program. Over the past twenty years he has been a pioneer in the historical study of the Négritude movement and its successors in the francophone Caribbean.
