"Experiments with Empire deserves an audience beyond the academicIzzo makes some perceptive points about how seeing the connections between ethnography and fiction can help us reimagine the world." - Emilie de Brigard (The Arts Fuse) “The book’s scope is bold and impressive…. Izzo’s study is an important contribution to research on the French Atlantic and on speculative forms in general, and it offers a fresh look at the crossings between ethnography and fiction that go beyond questions of truth and veracity, mimicry and resistance.” - Christina Kullberg (New West Indian Guide)
