Marguerite-Hélène Mahé (1903 - 1996) was a French writer from Réunion, who is best known for her work Sortilèges créoles: Eudora ou l'île enchantée ( fr), published first in 1952, serialised into three issues of Revue des Deux Mondes. [1] It was subsequently reissued whole, twice, in 1955 and 1985. [2] It is a pivotal work in Reunionnais literature, due to its descriptions of the lives of those enslaved on the island. [3] It was also the first novel by a Réunionese writer to use modernism and fantasy. [4] She also wrote an autobiography, which is as yet unpublished. [5]
