DESCRIPTION - In Ti-Coyo and His Shark, an immoral fable for sophisticated people, wickedness triumphs because it is charming. The scene is the exotic Caribbean before, during, and after the famous eruption of Mount Pelee. Ti-Coyo, a shrewd and winning half-caste boy, rescues a wounded baby shark, which becomes his faithful servant as it grows into a monster fearful to everyone but him. With the help of this behemoth Ti-Coyo becomes rich and wins the flaxen-haired princess of his dreams. It is the shark, too, who saves Ti-Coyo, his ill-assorted parents, and his sweetheart when Mount Pelee pours destruction over St. Pierre. Altogether this book by a martiniquais educated in France (where Ti-Coyo was showered with prizes) is an unholy delight. inventory #6279 Bookstore Sticker in Front, Otherwise Very Good.

Clément Richer, Martiniquais né à Fort-de-France en 1914, nous embarque ici pour une croisière bien particulière, entre mer déchaînée et rencontres inattendues. Après des études en métropole et une première uvre remarquée en 1941, Richer s'impose comme un conteur des tropiques, mêlant l'exotisme à la psychologie des personnages. Dans ce récit, on retrouve son goût pour les destins singuliers, les îles lointaines et les passions qui s'affrontent comme les vagues contre la coque d'un bateau. Ce roman porte en lui l'esprit d'un auteur qui a su capter la beauté et la violence des mers, tout en explorant les mystères du cur humain. Exemplaire bien conservé.
