Moi, Tituba, sorcière noire de Salem is a novel by the French Guadeloupean writer Maryse Condé, published in 1986. It was reissued under the title Moi, Tituba sorcière...

Summary: Moi, Tituba, sorcière, offers a reimagining of history by giving voice to Tituba, a woman of Caribbean origin, who was a slave and accused "witch." Tituba is a real historical figure, but she has received little attention from historians. Through this novel, Tituba recounts her life as a healer and slave in the 17th century, a time marked by the Inquisition and witch hunts. Her journey leads her to explore various worlds.

Themes: The novel addresses the intersection of gender, race, and class, highlighting how these factors contributed to Tituba's marginalization in historical accounts. Maryse Condé uniquely recreates Tituba's story, providing her with a voice in Moi, Tituba, sorcière noire de Salem.
