She translated these insights into a creative retelling of the Afro-Cuban tales, published in the collection that came to be known as Contes negres de Cuba. There is a playfulness, a roguishness (an "eutrapelie" for Bichard-Thomine) that runs throughout his three collections of tales, Propos rustiques (1547), Baliverneries d'Eutrapel (1548), and the much later Contes et discours d'Eutrapel (1585), as well as a joy in storytelling and dialogue so much in evidence in French Renaissance narrative.
