Annette Smith and Dominic Thomass new translations of Aim Csaires Like a Misunderstood Salvation and Solar Throat Slashed (poems deleted) expose to a new audience a pivotal figure in twentiethcentury French literature. This collection presents the early and last stages of a poets course, encapsulating in one volume Csaires entire literary career and creative evolution as perhaps the only French poet writing simultaneously at the crossroads of the avantgarde and classical movements.This volumes inclusion of previously deleted poems from Solar Throat Slashed is politically important; despite their initial exclusion from a French republication of Soleil Cou Coup in 1961, these thirtyone poems are crucial to understanding Csaires legacy and remain of tremendous pertinence today as they provide helpful ways of thinking about and contextualizing discussions on race, identity, global identities, and the links between black consciousness and social consciousness.
