Alfred Parépou

Alfred Parépou is the pseudonym of a Guianese author whose identity has long been debated. He is most often identified as Pierre Félix Athénodore Météran, born in 1841, a writer and then naval commissary from 1859 to 1875, who afterwards took up gold panning and was a member of the general council for Oyapock, Kaw and Approuague in 1886 and 1887; others have put forward the name of Alfred de Saint-Quentin. A republican, he had political reasons for withholding his name. The date of his death is not known.
