Synopsis:

In a deeply personal memoir, the best-selling author of Krik? Krak! describes her relationships with the two men closest to her--her father and his brother, Joseph, a charismatic pastor with whom she lived after her parents emigrated from Haiti to the U.S.--in a poignant story of family, love, grief, tragedy, hope, and triumph. 75,000 first printing.


Review:

"[A] sharply written, exhaustively reported and thoroughly depressing account of 'billionaires, bloggers, and the battle to remake Democratic politics' along unabashedly 'progressive' (read: New Deal and Great Society) lines."

Nick Gillespie, New York Times Book Review, 09/02/2007

Review:

"[A] memoir whose cleareyed prose and unflinching adherence to the facts conceal an astringent undercurrent of melancholy, a mixture of homesickness and homelessness."

Jess Row, New York Times Book Review, 09/09/2007
