Abstract: Tongue Ties: A Poetic of Solidarity in Francophone Independence Literatures is an original intervention that challenges the historical and racial logic of Francophone studies by introducing the complex solidarity relations between the Quebec independence movement and anticolonialism in African and Caribbean countries. It is a sophisticated examination of the idea of solidarity as a form of reading as well as of independence and anticolonialism as textually constructed concepts.
