Guadeloupe, fin du XVIIIe siècle. Solitude n'est plus une enfant.
Elle a grandi dans l'ombre des colons, dans la brutalité de la servitude, et elle a appris à survivre. Aujourd'hui, elle choisit autre chose: se battre.
Elle rejoint les Marrons, ces esclaves en fuite qui vivent libres dans les hauteurs de l'île, en guerre permanente contre un monde qui refuse de les laisser exister. Et pour la première fois depuis longtemps, la liberté n'est pas qu'un mot: en 1794, la France abolit l'esclavage.
Huit ans de souffle. Huit ans pour aimer, pour vivre, pour espérer.
C'est dans ce répit que Solitude rencontre Lukengo, un Africain qui a refusé la servitude dès son arrivée sur l'île. Avec lui, elle découvre ce que c'est qu'aimer libre. Ensemble, ils dirigent un clan marron, se battent, espèrent.
Puis 1802 arrive. Napoléon rétablit l'esclavage. Et envoie son armée.
Aux côtés de Louis Delgrès et Joseph Ignace, Solitude entre dans la révolte qui va faire d'elle une légende, et qui scellera son destin.
Solitude, Révolte est le second volet du diptyque consacré à l'une des figures les plus puissantes de la résistance antillaise. On sait comment cette histoire se termine. On ne sait pas encore à quel prix, ni avec quel amour.
Suite directe de Solitude, Enfance.
Gabriel Souleyka, auteur de Le Cri de l'Innocence, Toya Dahomey et Voleurs d'Âmes
