About this book

Batouala a True Black Novel by Maran, Rene. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780879530068.

French African prose can be given a beginning with the publication in 1921 of the novel Batouala . . . its sensitive portrayal of African life, with its evocation of the natural environment, could not but make a profound impression upon its African readers and offered a vivid example of what an African novel in French could be.
