Last week my publisher @LivUniPress celebrated Joseph Zobel on what would have been his 104th birthday! High time to rethink the great #Caribbean author's legacy... My latest book does just that: bit.ly/2YZ5Fdk @LCAHM_UoB @artsatbham @Trans_Cultures
Joseph Zobel, author of La Rue Cases-Nègres, was born #onthisday in 1915. Find out more about his work and life in Louise Hardwick's Joseph Zobel: Negritude and the Novel. #FrancophoneStudies @ZobelProject bit.ly/2YZ5Fdk
