Book Reviews of Poetics of Relation

Book Review: A unique voice in our contemporary world
Summary: 5 Stars

The Poetics of Relation is an amazing book. It promotes a non sectarian relationship between cultures, in a world where virtual borders are disappearing. Read it in French if you can. Although I might have the only copy of Poetique de la Relation in the USA. Another good introduction is a text he wrote about the French Rule in India which you can read on bilingual blog bilingue de la curiosité (in French & English) on blogspot.
