Haiti: The Aftershocks of History
Haiti: The Aftershocks of History. By Laurent Dubois. Published in January 2012 by Metropolitan Books.
A remarkable history of Haiti since the revolution and independence. Excellently written, largely structured as narrative but with valuable discussions of many aspects of Haitian culture, economics and society; an eye-opener in its accounts of the many ways outsiders have used and imagined the country for their own purposes. A biography fully worthy of its subject, a troubled but remarkable country. Buy here.
