Louiseville, PQ: Les Editions Intermede, 1980. Trade Paperback. NEAR FINE.

"Until the publication of Cris sur le bayou Cajun and Creole literature was mainly oral... This inaugural anthology showed unequivocally that the Cajun Renaissance, which we can date approximately to the creation of the Council for the Development of French in Louisiana (CODOFIL) in 1968, had not failed to sustain quality creative writing in French. Bold, original, and deeply rooted in Louisiana, the texts in Cris sur le bayou expressed a common desire to inscribe the problematic experience of the Louisiana French-speaker confronted with the specter of his own disappearance." Text in French. Authors include: Jean Arceneaux, Debbie Clifton, Emile Des Marais, Kala Guillory, Francis Leblanc, Iry Le Jeune, Kenneth Richard, Zachary Richard.143 pages.
