A prophet, seer, matchmaker, trickster, or huckster-- or does he even exist? In this satirical novel tinged with magical realism, Haitian novelist Lyonel Trouillot (Kannjawou) paints a richly textured portrait of life in his native country overseen by supernatural forces where the worlds of dream and reality co-exist. With alternating chapters that reveal the day to day struggles in the capital city of Port-au-Prince of two twin brothers, Ti-Tony, a small time hustler, and Frankie, a wheel-chair-bound folklorist who is writing a biography of the mythic titular Antoine, presiding in his white linen suit and melon-colored hat, the worlds of rural and urban Haiti are brought to colorful and vibrant life."-- $c Barnesandnoble.com. 500 $a A novel. 500 $a Translated from the French. 546 $a In English, translated from French. 650 0 $a Brothers $z Port-au-Prince $z Port-au-Prince $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Mothers and sons $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Literature $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Social values $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Brothers $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00839665 650 7 $a Literature $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00999953 650 7 $a Mothers and sons $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01027007 650 7 $a Social values $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01123424 651 7 $a Haiti $z Port-au-Prince $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01205704 655 0 $a Haitian fiction. 655 7 $a Fiction $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Humorous fiction $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726649 655 7 $a Novels $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01921742 655 7 $a Humorous fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Romans. $2 rvmgf $0 (CaQQLa)RVMGF-000000475 700 1 $a Dize, Nathan H., $d 1989- $e translator. 700 1 $i Translation of: $a Trouillot, Lyonel. $t Antoine des Gommiers. $l English 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240717011456.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=FED952EE440111EF98CC15ED37ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
