Reviews
"A tenuously linked tripartite novel that is more than the sum of its parts is a hard act to pull off. Marie NDiaye, one of France's most exciting prose stylists and playwrights, succeeds with elegance, grit and some painful comedy in Three Strong Women …Its three heroines have an unassailable sense of their own self-worth, while their psychological battles have an almost mythic resonance…The prose compels with astonishing range and precision." -Maya Jaggi, The Guardian (UK) "NDiaye's quiet intelligence is made apparent by the complexity of her characters and her intuitive prose in this subtly beautiful novel." - Publishers Weekly "Captivating and unsettling …with spare prose and evocative imagery…John Fletcher's translation conveys the richness and precision of language for which NDiaye is renowned in the French-speaking world…In each of the novel's characters, strength and weakness, violence and vulnerability are as intertwined as the quotidian and the extraordinary in NDiaye's storytelling…A multifaceted glimpse of lives too rarely seen in print." -Sara Kaplan, Ms . "Compelling…NDiaye dissects her characters with impressive forensic detail, the subtlest speech inflection or gesture put under the microscope…The language has an hypnotic emotional intensity…the novel has a passion, daring and individuality." -Bernardine Evaristo, The Independent (UK) "Sinewy and sardonic, combining realism and fable in a way that mixes Kafka and Cinderella… Three Strong Women is full of NDiaye's narrative gusto, stylistic virtuosity and command of tone…The power the stories reveal is that of self-knowledge, self-belief and endurance." -Michael Sheringham, Times Literary Supplement (UK) "A beautiful novel…NDiaye's writing is extraordinarily powerful, and she is very well served by John Fletcher's elegant, economical translation." - The Times (UK) "The beauty of her language, the strange force of her inspiration, her mastery of narrative have established her as one of the important figures in French literature…[she] opens up the mysterious world of the most secret thoughts." - Le Monde "Here is the beauty of Marie NDiaye's novel: a fire burning in the heart of a cold and frozen existence." - Journal du Dimanche "Between Africa and France, her enchanted heroines, cursed by history, cast their nets, and glowing with their hard-won freedom-strong women even taking off towards death." - Le Figaro "A sumptuous classicism…Proust and Faulkner conversing under African skies… one of our greatest writers." - Le Point "Mastery of form carried to extraordinary levels… velvety prose, wise and precise-a frighteningly just, real, dignified, and poignant vision of suffering humanity." - Telerama "A masterly work, served by an exacting, intense, and bewitching prose, implacably apt throughout, transporting us to the edge of the strange and the imaginary,. Three Strong Women surely established Marie Ndiaye as one of the most eminent "writer-storytellers" of our time. - Rentrée Littéraire 2009 "Sinuous long phrases, at times brutal, at times sweet, underline and follow the emerging consciousness of these African women in their quest for identity...Riveting, hypnotizing prose." - Marie Claire "Strength. That is the word that would suffice to summarize the genius of this work…NDiaye's new novel has the force of a fist. " - Evene

Synopsis
From the acclaimed literary celebrity--the first black woman ever to win the Prix Goncourt--a harrowing and beautiful novel of the travails of West African immigrants in France, giving voice as never before to Europe's most unwanted., In this new novel, the first by a black woman ever to win the coveted Prix Goncourt, Marie NDiaye creates a luminous narrative triptych as harrowing as it is beautiful. This is the story of three women who say no: Norah, a French-born lawyer who finds herself in Senegal, summoned by her estranged, tyrannical father to save another victim of his paternity; Fanta, who leaves a modest but contented life as a teacher in Dakar to follow her white boyfriend back to France, where his delusional depression and sense of failure poison everything; and Khady, a penniless widow put out by her husband's family with nothing but the name of a distant cousin (the aforementioned Fanta) who lives in France, a place Khady can scarcely conceive of but toward which she must now take desperate flight. With lyrical intensity, Marie NDiaye masterfully evokes the relentless denial of dignity, to say nothing of happiness, in these lives caught between Africa and Europe. We see with stunning emotional exactitude how ordinary women discover unimagined reserves of strength, even as their humanity is chipped away. Three Strong Women admits us to an immigrant experience rarely if ever examined in fiction, but even more into the depths of the suffering heart.
