Maryse Condé's work makes a multitude of voices resonate: the fictional narrators of the novels walk alongside the writer's self-representations in her more markedly autobiographical texts. We can still hear different intonations of Condé's voice in critical texts, essays, interviews throughout his more than fifty-year history of presence in the publishing world. In this article, we propose to revisit critical texts published by Maryse Condé in periodicals (Présence Africaine, 1975-1976; Yale French Studies, 1993), taken up in the thesis le Stéréotype du noir dans la littérature antillaise Guadeloupe-Martinique, and the possible intertwinings with her novels, especially Traversée de la mangrove (1989). In the dialogue between different points of view from different genres, we seek to reflect on Maryse Condé's self-representation in critical production, marked by the valorization of the new (PERRONE-MOISÉS, 1994) and the creation of a spirit of opposition, and on the resonances of such stances in his fictional production.
