Résumé

Edmond Albius est un jeune esclave génial : il a découvert le procédé de fécondation de la vanille, et son propriétaire exploite ce savoir-faire qui le rend riche sur l’île Bourbon. Mais voici que l’Histoire frémit en cette année 1848, on entend qu’en France, il y aurait une révolution, et sur l’île Maurice voisine, ils auraient libéré tous les noirs. Et si l’abolition de l’esclavage était sur le point d’arriver sur l’île de La Réunion ?

Très documenté, ce récit romanesque relève à la fois de la chronique de l'époque (relaté du strict point de vue des esclaves et des affranchis) et de l'histoire d'amour, à un moment où l’histoire bascule.

    Appollo was born as Olivier Appollodorus in 1969 in Tunisia. He grew up in North Africa and on Réunion, where, as a high school student, he founded a comics magazine called "Le Cri du margouillat" with his friends (such as Téhem, Li-An and Serge Huo-Chao-Si). He studied in Paris and, with the cartoonist Mad, began his career as a comics writer for the publishing house Vents d'Ouest. They created the three-volume series "Une aventure de Louis Ferdinand Quincampoix" between 1991 and 1992.After Mad's death, Appollo returned to Réunion, where he became a professor, before leaving for Nigeria to perform his national service as a cooperator. Upon his return to the island, he continued his work as a writer and published "La Grippe coloniale" (Vents d'Ouest, 2003) with Serge Huo-Chao-Si.
