Rudy Rabathaly (Martinique), journalist and former editor-in-chief France Antillessigns his new novel Cocktail (Caraïbéditions2025) Saturday, March 29th at 10am at Cultura California, Lamentin, Martinique (bookstore).
explanation: Kokliko (Hibiscus Flower of Creole) is the nickname for a young girl who lives in this novel, and it unfolds like a counterpoint sheet music. Between fairy tales and coming-of-age stories, the characters invite us to spin in a dancing circle of Caribbean poetry. The author and his spoken words blur the boundaries between the literature and everyday language between the author and his spoken words, and overwhelm us with the linguistic power of Creole’s imagination.
Overwhelmed by the sudden love, Kokuriko witnesses the birth of a rivalry with the book, a lifelong passion. Mixing and embodying her passionate sensuality, the flesh of words she cherishes above all else, will sharpen her excitement to the point that drives her to corner the mysterious pages of her Haitian lineage that have been hidden for a long time.
The author reverses the cliches of women as a desire to create the subject they want at a dead end between place and time.
Cocktail It is an oral traditional novel that brings out a wealth of golden words from French-speaking Caribbean languages.
