Zusammenfassung:It was with great sadness that we received news of the death of Lilyan Kesteloot on February 28, 2018. May her family and loved ones find our condolences. We will respect her and honor her memory as the passante who connected Africa to Europe and the Americas. Her publications indeed bridged the transatlantic literatures, the “Black Atlantic,” long before Paul Gilroy did. We say forever “Adieu” to Lilyan, the historian of Afro-Caribbean letters and their reception overseas.
