The few recordings of Alain Peters contained in this album allow us to evaluate the metaphoric narrations of a tormented poet who, with a great performative sincerity, humbles the listener. It becomes impossible to remain untouched by his poignant laments, the beauty of the Creole lyrics and the softness of this writer’s voice who is often deemed “exceptional” well outside the boundaries of Réunion.
