Une reine sans royaume

Description

When Ranavalona III, the last queen of Madagascar, arrived in Tunis in 1907, she was overwhelmed by memories of her youth in Tananarive, her passionate loves and the tragedy of her forced exile. She also discovered a country that was the intellectual heart of the Orient at the time, with its salons of thought held by enlightened sovereigns. All of them shared a love of literature and politics, and alongside these women, Ranavalona found her voice again. In this second poetic and captivating novel, Hella Feki gives voice to this queen who was not destined to reign. A journey across Africa, a fictional variation on this forgotten figure of history.
