A memoir, a journey between two countries
A poetic novel about Haiti
LISTEN NOW to A Show About Haiti or download the jamcast at A Show About Haiti Podcast – In light of the recent tragic earthquake in Haiti, Lisa and Lisa take a few minutes to list books about Haiti that they read years ago, or just last night (in the case of Lisa LC).
We also recommend listeners donate to Haiti relief, if at all possible, through the Partners in Health web site - http://www.pih.org/.
Books discussed include three books by Edwidge Danticat - Breath, Eyes, Memory; Brother I’m Dying; and The Dew Breaker. We also discuss Mountains Beyond Mountains: The Quest of Dr. Paul Farmer, a Man Who Would Cure the World by Tracy Kidder, a book that features Dartmouth College’s new president Dr. Kim.
