Paul Tchakouté · 1980
Synopsis
A colonial tragedy in five acts, published in 1980 in Bafoussam by the éditions de la Librairie populaire, in ninety-five pages, with a preface by the historian of Africa Robert Cornevin.
Context
The book comes out the same year as another twenty-page volume by the same author, two years after his first collection of verse, and from the same bookseller in Bafoussam, who also acts as publisher. Its subtitle places it under the sign of drama and colonisation, and its preface-writer is the historian Robert Cornevin, whose studies of the continent's past the Persée portal lists. The catalogue of the Bibliothèque nationale de France knows of no other edition.
Who it is for
In French, a play in five acts. It is worth knowing that its subtitle places it under the sign of colonisation.
Prizes and reception
No known prize, nor any dated performance of the play.
