This jury rewarded me with the "Very Honorable" mention and with this judgment: "We can only be sensitive to the work presented by Mr. CHRISTON, whose clarity of writing, the firmness of the composition and, of a In general, the very seriousness, the taste for archives, for documents, in a spirit close to literary history as it is currently practiced. ". This second volume will contain an in-depth study of the distinctive features of these childhood stories. The recurring themes of the various works studied will be identified and analyzed. The authors will move, with the years and the events, from self-consciousness to collective consciousness, thus marking the real turning point of Caribbean literature.
