Jørgen Leth skriver fra et Haiti, der står ved År Nul. Historierne, der er samlet i denne bog, følger Haiti gennem to dramatiske årtier, fra Jørgen Leth i 1991 står på den grønne plæne foran Aristides hvide præsidentpalads og føler sig som vidne til et magisk øjeblik, frem til jordskælvet, der i 2010 lægger nationen øde. En utrolig historie om overlevelse på trods af alle odds, om kup og modkup, diktatur, politiske intriger og blodige magtspil, fortalt med lige dele kynisme og hjertevarme.

Dr. Paul Farmer, U.N. deputy special envoy to Haiti, who had worked in the country for nearly thirty years treating infectious diseases like tuberculosis and AIDS, and former President Bill Clinton, the U.N. special envoy to Haiti, had just begun to work on an extensive development plan to improve living conditions in Haiti.

Haiti og Den Dominikanske Republik ligger på hver sin side af én ø, men allerede da den danske eventyrer Aage Krarup Nielsen besøger øen i midten af 1950‘erne, er kontrasten mellem de to lande slående.

Mit dem Mikrofon rund um die Welt. Das ist die spannende Aufgabe, die sich unseren Autor*innen stellt. Um dann in unserem Podcast "Zwischen Hamburg und Haiti" zu erzählen, wie nahe und ferne Länder klingen, was die Menschen dort berichten, wie sie leben, was sie wünschen. Wir fragen unsere Reporter*innen aber auch, wie sie selber sich gefühlt haben beim Reisen, wie es ist, fremd in fernen Welten zu sein. Lassen Sie sich von unserem Podcast "Zwischen Hamburg und Haiti" einladen, mitzureisen und vielleicht auch eigene Reisepläne zu schmieden!

The lush vegetation and burning sun of Haiti was a world away from Agnes Woodridge's New England home. Despite herself, the lovely young woman felt a tremor of fear of the unknown when she entered the great mansion of Seacrest to take care of a mysterious disturbed little girl, Germaine Dodge. Agnes would have trembled still more if she knew of the curse that hung over this place of so much evil and so many secrets.
