“Monsieur Toundi—the Man”: The Soviet Life of Ferdinand Oyono's Une vie de boy in Russian Translation
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 23 October 2020
Extract
Most literary scholars based in the united states think of the postcolonial as a largely first and third world affair, neglecting the vast Second World and the socialist dynamics that shaped the postcolonial world in the decades after World War II. The Soviet Russian translation of Ferdinand Oyono's 1956 literary classic Une vie de boy highlights the sustained and complex interactions between the Soviet world and colonial and postcolonial Africa that have played an important role in the development of postcoloniality.
