In the sequel to volume 1, "Solitude Chilhood", you discovered the dramatic story of Solitude. In this final episode, she is now an assertive woman, fighting openly for her freedom after growing up under the oppression of the colonists in Guadeloupe. She joined the ranks of the Maroons, while France, buoyed by its revolution, abolished slavery in 1794, only to reinstate it in 1802. These short-lived years of independence gave rise to a veritable resistance movement. Louis Delgres and Joseph Ignace led an uprising against this injustice, and it was here that Solitude met Lukengo, an African who had managed to escape servitude on his arrival in Guadeloupe. At his side, she discovers love and her own humanity. Together, they lead a Maroon clan in a courageous struggle. But Napoleon's army is sent to suppress the island, and revolt breaks out. Solitude's destiny is on the march. This historical novel, a sequel to volume 1 which retraced her childhood, now reveals the events that made her a legend.
