"Kannjawou (pronounced Konn-yeh-woo) is the Haitian Creole expression for a wild celebration, a fandango. Set in Haiti's capital Port-Au-Prince in the early 2000s, this novel by acclaimed author Lyonel Trouillot embodies the nation's indomitable spirit through a journal kept by a deeply observant young male college student, depicting a country entering a new era after years of oppression, corruption, and most recently, the shambles left in the wake of foreign occupation."-- cover page [4].
