Haiti: Lyonel Trouillot in" The World Magazine


After the devastating earthquake of January 12, Port-au-Prince, but also Leogane, Petit Goave, Jacmel, are piles of rubble. Haiti has its dead - at least 75,000 so far, 250,000 injured and 1 million homeless - and with the support of international aid, attempts to stopgap: distribution of food, water, care. Somehow, Haitians are mourning their loved ones, cursing the land and its upheavals, thank heaven for having survived the disaster.

The Haitian writer Lyonel Trouillot , who was in Port-au-Prince during the earthquake, is one of those "survivors", which "surprised that he could still speak, move, cry, smile" , and he commends the courage and intelligence in a text, "Death is mounted on earth", forthcoming in The World Magazine this weekend (Available today). Six pages of photos of dress Carolyn Cole, author of Charlie yanvalou (Actes Sud, 2009) describes a Port-au-Prince struck but not destroyed, but not helpless resignation. A welcome speech against the fatalistic talk of a supposed "curse".
