The Rainy Season Hait Since Duvalier
Wilentz brings Haiti to life, current and past, as she writes from her experience of Haiti, beginning a few days before the ousting of Haiti's President for Life, Jean-Claude "Baby-Doc" Duvalier. She shows how hope led to disappointment when liberation led not to reform but chaos and stagnation. The reader will see soldiers controlling country roads with road-blocks, gunfire in the streets of Port-au-Prince, farmers struggling to survive, and a culture where belief in voodooism is as strong today as it ever was. 425 pages with Bibliography and Index. 9.5 x 6.5 inches. 1989, Jonathan Cape, London, England.
