Guadeloupe... this enchanting place, about which we rarely hear, transforms in the books of "Maryse Condé" into the center of the entire world, and she makes us, without realizing it, fall in love with it. In this book, she takes us there once again to tell us the stories of her childhood, starting from her birth in "La Pointe," where her mother's cries during labor mingled with the sounds of the carnival drums, which was taking place in the city at that time. This is what "Condé," when she grew up, considered a sign, a sign from which she learned how to conceal the greatest pains beneath a laughing facade.

In this intensely warm and humane book, the Guadeloupean writer recounts the memories of her childhood and adolescence, and how, surrounded by a strict mother and a reserved father, she followed the path of rebellion, which ultimately led her towards her destiny of becoming a writer.
