Who is Yambo Ouologuem?
Yambo Ouologuem is a Malian writer. His first novel, Le Devoir de Violence, won the Prix Renaudot. He later published Lettre à la France nègre, and Les mille et une bibles du sexe under the pseudonym Utto Rodolph. Le Devoir de Violence was initially well-received, but critics later charged that Ouologuem had plagiarized passages from Graham Greene and other established authors. Ouologuem turned away from the Western press as a result of the matter, and even today remains reclusive.
