D. Laferrière’s novel, Comment faire l’amour avec un nègre sans se fatiguer, represents an extraordinary example of Postmodern writing, focusing on the identity issue from two different points of view: firstly, the alienated black immigrant, arriving in Montréal in 1980 (turned into a sexual object by the young white students belonging to the English upper-classes) and secondly, the identity of the allophone writer experiencing new representation forms and thus arguing both socio-cultural stereotypes and fictional conventions.
