Neither one can read the other's thoughts, but their flashbacks and reminiscences provide radically contrasting accounts of the Duvalier regime. Far more than a recap of recent Haitian history, the novel is also a subtle exploration of the power of memory" -- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Duvalier, François, $d 1907-1971 $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Haiti $v Fiction. 600 17 $a Duvalier, François, $d 1907-1971. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00019184 651 7 $a Haiti. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01205135 655 7 $a Biographical fiction. $2 gsafd 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 700 1 $a Daw, Paul Curtis, $e translator. 700 1 $a Herbeck, Jason, $e writer of afterword. 830 0 $a CARAF books. 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240517011642.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20220802015916.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0D6A111081F911E58D57CB8FDAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
