Its structure is deceptively simple: it departs from the infamous real-life “Code Noir,” a set of historical decrees originally passed in 1685 by King Louis XIV of France defining the conditions of slavery in the French colonial empire. The original Code had fifty-nine articles; \u003ci\u003eCode Noir \u003c\/i\u003ehas fifty-nine linked fictions—vivid, unforgettable, multi-layered fragments filled with globe-wise characters who desire to live beyond the ruins of the past. Ranging in style from contemporary realism to dystopia, from futuristic fantasy to historical fiction, this inventive, shape-shifting braid of stories exists far beyond the enclosures of official decrees. This is a timely, daring, virtuosic book by a young literary star. The stories are accompanied by black-and-white drawings—one at the start of each fiction—by acclaimed visual artist Torkwase Dyson.","brand":"None","offers":[{"title":"Couverture souple","offer_id":46159158542513,"sku":"9780735282230","price":25.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Couverture rigide","offer_id":46159158575281,"sku":"9780735282216","price":34.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Livre numérique Kobo","offer_id":46159158608049,"sku":"bc1e03e2-41eb-3f03-9401-eed1b0b112eb","price":13.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0655\/8980\/5233\/files\/1_58fced2d-c118-4695-952a-3bc256cddaf9.jpg?v=1763714729","url":"https:\/\/www.indigo.ca\/fr\/products\/code-noir","provider":"Indigo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
