The nine consciousnesses of Malfini (Paperback)

Customer Review

Again, Patrick CHAMOISEAU offers a wonderful novel. A fable, an initiatory novel nature of service.
The narrator is a raptor Caribbean, a nozzle of Martinique ... the Malfini.
The latter reigns over the site of Rabuchon (in near Saint-Joseph Martinique). Its round trigger hysterical panic among the local wildlife.
Only Foufou (hybrid Hummingbird) seems to ignore it and continue to go about their business.
How someone so insignificant, a insect ilk, a ridiculous point of existence slovenly behavior, can it be indifferent to it?
With a head that spins on itself, which serves as a needle nozzle, supersonic travel, an indefinable aspect that reconciles all and distinguishes it from all simultaneously.
Magician, be free!
Such majesty, a tiny brilliance, grace personified!
The Malfini will start a long process of reflection based on observation of Foufou.
The rejection in a first time, to doubt, then the gradual acceptance; the Foufou opens his eyes towards another possible out of reach before.

A sublime fable multiple resonances.
Chamoiseau book an ode to Nature in this its most essential for living. A bitter fact actions of mankind ("the worst useless monstrosities of the living")
But also on the concepts of property (The world belongs to all).
A beautifully written philosophical fable (every sentence sounds like a poem, a rich vocabulary and singing)
A superb aeuvre!
