"With French words drenched in Malagasy poetry, this passion-filled epic draws the reader into a troubled and moving world Naivo borrows from Malagasy language at will, using expressions and proverbs that enrich his novel. His translations rendering them into French intertwine nicely into turns of phrase that coax the French language into supple flexibility. The author lets himself play with the French language sometimes... and revives the Malagasy art of oratory." --MyRakoto

Descrizione libro Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. The first novel from Madagascar ever to be translated into English, Naivo's magisterial Beyond the Rice Fields delves into the upheavals of the nation's past as it confronted Christianity and modernity, through the twin narratives of a slave and his master's daughter.Fara and her father's slave, Tsito, have been close since her father bought the boy after his forest village was destroyed. Now in Sahasoa, amongst the cattle and rice fields, everything is new for Tsito, and Fara at last has a companion. But as Tsito looks forward to the bright promise of freedom and Fara, backward to a dark, long-denied family history, a rift opens between them just as British Christian missionaries and French industrialists arrive and violence erupts across the country. Love and innocence fall away, and Tsito and Fara's world becomes enveloped by tyranny, superstition, and fear.With captivating lyricism, propulsive urgency, and two unforgettable characters at the story's core, Naivo unflinchingly delves into the brutal history of nineteenth-century Madagascar. Beyond the Rice Fields is a tour de force that has much to teach us about human bondage and the stories we tell to face-and hide from-ourselves, each other, our pasts, and our destinies.
