"[Cesaire's] writing bursts with intelligence, fervor and conviction. In her essays Leo Frobenius and the Problems of Civilizations, Alain and Esthetics, Andre Breton, Poet, and 1943: Surrealism and Us, she mobilizes anthropology, philosophy, and poetry to awaken global black consciousness, resistance, and liberation..."–Gabrielle Civil, Rain Taxi
"Provide[s] fascinating insights into [Césaire's] time and on this remarkable writer."–Jean Khalfa, Wasafiri
"The Great Camouflage is most welcome. Non-Francophones sorely needed to have access to Suzanne Césaire's writings, and the translating work of Keith L. Walker and editing by Daniel Maximin deliver."–Alex Gil, New West Indian Guide

"Suzanne's first six essays flow seamlessly to her last, 'The Great Camouflage.' What she would have produced had she continued to write after 1945 or lived beyond the age of fifty, we will never know. But one thing is certain: Suzanne Césaire was a bright and shining light and a brilliant dissident for all time. The Great Camouflage is a spectacular achievement."–Tiffany Ruby Patterson, H-France Reviews
