Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jacques Pierre louvri kè l de batan nan Kite kè m pale pou l envite nou viv kouman entimite ak pwoblèm sosyal pran randevou nan menm kalfou. Powèt la fotografye difikilte ak kouran santiman ki travèse lavi medam yo. Epi, li wete chapo li byen ba pou li salye kouraj Martin Luther King Jr, Malcolm X, ak lòt lidè ki pa te pè batay pou yon minorite ki pran nan cho, e yo mete nan kacho souvan poutèt po yo. Pou fini, li envite nou viv de twa powèm nan langaj jagon ak bolit, epi yon katafal lòt ki fè yonn ak pafen lawouze nou jwenn nan bèl lang nou an. Rekèy powèm sa a se yon envitasyon otè a fè nou tout pou nou dekouvri bèlte lang nou an. Nan chak grenn mo, otè a plonje kè nou nan lanmè Karayib la, kote vag yo fè nanm nou tonbe nan yon ale vini jouk kouran lanmou an rale nou pou nou fè yonn ak powèm yo. -Wedsly Turenne Guerrier Lang nou ak kilti nou se rezilta kreyativite nou ki pran nanm nan lavi chak kretyen vivan. Se sa potorik otè Jacques Pierre fè nan rekèy sa a. Pierre marinen lang nou ak kilti nou ansanm pou ofri nou yon konsonmen kreyativite ki se temwayaj richès kiltirèl ak lengwistik Ayiti cheri nou an. -Marky Jean-Pierre

Download or read book The Belle Cr ole written by Maryse Condé and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2020-04-28 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Possessing one of the most vital voices in international letters, Maryse Condé added to an already acclaimed career the New Academy Prize in Literature in 2018. The twelfth novel by this celebrated author revolves around an enigmatic crime and the young man at its center. Dieudonné Sabrina, a gardener, aged twenty-two and black, is accused of murdering his employer--and lover--Loraine, a wealthy white woman descended from plantation owners. His only refuge is a sailboat, La Belle Créole, a relic of times gone by. Condé follows Dieudonné’s desperate wanderings through the city of Port-Mahault the night of his acquittal, the narrative unfolding through a series of multivoiced flashbacks set against a forbidding backdrop of social disintegration and tumultuous labor strikes in turn-of-the-twenty-first-century Guadeloupe. Twenty-four hours later, Dieudonné’s fate becomes suggestively intertwined with that of the French island itself, though the future of both remains uncertain in the end. Echoes of Faulkner and Lawrence, and even Shakespeare’s Othello, resonate in this tale, yet the drama’s uniquely modern dynamics set it apart from any model in its exploration of love and hate, politics and stereotype, and the attempt to find connections with others across barriers. Through her vividly and intimately drawn characters, Condé paints a rich portrait of a contemporary society grappling with the heritage of slavery, racism, and colonization.

Download or read book D zafi written by Frankétienne and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2018-10-30 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dézafi is no ordinary zombie novel. In the hands of the great Haitian author known simply as Frankétienne, zombification takes on a symbolic dimension that stands as a potent commentary on a country haunted by a history of slavery. Now this dynamic new translation brings this touchstone in Haitian literature—the first book ever published in Haitian Creole—to English-language readers for the first time. Written in a provocative experimental style, with a myriad of voices and combining myth, poetry, allegory, magical realism, and social realism, Dézafi tells the tale of a plantation that is run and worked by zombies for the financial benefit of the living owner. The owner's daughter falls in love with a zombie and facilitates his transformation back into fully human form, leading to a rebellion that challenges the oppressive imbalance that had robbed the workers of their spirit. With the walking dead and bloody cockfights (the "dézafi" of the title) as cultural metaphors for Haitian existence, Frankétienne’s novel is ultimately a powerful allegory of political and social liberation.

Download or read book American Odyssey written by Michel S. Laguerre and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 1984 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Caribbean immigrants have now become part of the social landscape of many American cities. Few studies, however, have treated in detail the process of their integration in American society. American Odyssey assesses the development and adaptation, in both human and socio-economic terms, of the Haitian immigrant community in three boroughs of New York City. An informed and well-rounded portrayal of a Caribbean community in New York, this book offers a fresh theoretical view of the structuring of urban ethnicity and provides the ethnographic background essential to understanding the problems of the Haitian population in the United States.
