Finding Monte Cristo: Alexandre Dumas and the French Atlantic World
Eric Martone
During his lifetime, the biracial French writer Alexandre Dumas (1802-1870), grandson of a Caribbean slave, faced forms of racial prejudice in France. He constantly strove to find a place where he could belong, an isolated figure in search for an identity within a larger collectivity. For him, ""Monte Cristo"" seemed to symbolize this quest.
