Portrait of an Island on Fire is a book written by Mauritian writer and activist Ariel Saramandi. In this series of essays, she sheds light on historical events that have been voluntarily scrapped from the public eye during the last decades. Ariel Saramandi's bold, unflinching voice tackles various themes, ranging from classism and structural racism, to environmental issues, epigenetic mental health disorders and the struggle for women's rights in a fractured Mauritius.
