| Summary: | This article focuses on the writer Myriam Harry, who put the East at the heart of her literary production. As an exceptional case among travellers of her time, Harry blended different cultural universes in her books, which is particularly true of D’Autres îles de volupté where Swahili, European and Arab cultures rub shoulders. The analysis centres around the author’s systems of enunciation, revealing a contradictory position in terms of cultural identity, but also regarding the ways in which the writer tries to situate herself within the orientalist literary field. |
