Code Noir
批評家のレビュー
“Written in language that crackles with life and humour, the stories in Canisia Lubrin’s Code Noir: Metamorphoses usher us into the lives of their narrators, lives that are filled with a kind of wonder and surprise. Such an invitation to enter and imagine their worlds. In its formal inventiveness and sheer audaciousness, Code Noir is unlike anything else that I’ve ever read. Lubrin is a force.”—Christina Sharpe, author of Ordinary Notes and In the Wake
“Code Noir is a revelation. Proof that it is possible for an imagination to outpace the rest of us, and beckon from a future far richer and more brilliant than anything we know. This book sings in searing language, telling stories that bristle and challenge, comfort and question. Canisia Lubrin is one of the finest writers and thinkers of our time, and in Code Noir is a voice that, once heard, can never be forgotten."—Maaza Mengiste, author of The Shadow King, shortlisted for the Booker Prize
"A book that radiates life—insistent, unbounded life. . . . A virtuosic assembling of genres, voices and experience . . . with lines gripping the heart and stories suffused with beauty and tenderness."—David Chariandy, author of Brother
あらすじ・解説
Here is groundbreaking, dazzling debut fiction from one of Canada's most exciting and admired writers.
Canisia Lubrin's debut fiction is that rare work of art—a brilliant, startlingly original book that combines immense literary and political force. Its structure is deceptively simple: it departs from the infamous real-life “Code Noir,” a set of historical decrees originally passed in 1685 by King Louis XIV of France defining the conditions of slavery in the French colonial empire. The original Code had fifty-nine articles; Code Noir has fifty-nine linked fictions—vivid, unforgettable, multi-layered fragments filled with globe-wise characters who desire to live beyond the ruins of the past.
Ranging in style from contemporary realism to dystopia, from futuristic fantasy to historical fiction, this inventive, shape-shifting braid of stories exists far beyond the enclosures of official decrees. This is a timely, daring, virtuosic book by a young literary star.
