Product Description
This play by renowned poet and political activist Aime Csairerecounts the tragic death of Patrice Lumumba, the first prime minister of the Congo Republic and an African nationalist hero.
A Season in the Congo
follows Lumumbas efforts to free the Congolese from Belgian rule and the political struggles that led to his assassination in 1961. Csaire powerfully depicts Lumumba as a sympathetic, Christ-like figure whose conscious martyrdom reflects his self-sacrificing humanity and commitment to pan-Africanism. Born in Martinique and educated in Paris, Csaire was a revolutionary artist and lifelong political activist, who founded the Martinique Independent Revolution Party. Csaires ardent personal opposition to Western imperialism and racism fuels both his profound sympathy for Lumumba and the emotional strength ofA Season in the Congo. Now rendered in a lyrical translation by distinguished scholar Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak, Csaires play will find a new audience of readers interested in world literature and the vestiges of European colonialism.
