A Living Guide

This book aims to be more than an academic study or tourist guide. It seeks to provide practical wisdom for engaging respectfully with French Caribbean communities, whether you're a visitor, a student, a member of the diaspora reconnecting with heritage, or simply someone curious about the world's beautiful complexity.

Each chapter includes: - Historical context that acknowledges multiple perspectives - Contemporary voices from various communities - Practical information for cultural engagement - Glossaries of Creole terms with pronunciation - Suggested further reading from Caribbean authors - Playlists curated by local musicians - Recipes shared by home cooks and chefs
