La chant des blessures (The song of the wounds)
by Sybille Claude
Description
In the midst of Operation Baghdad in Port-au-Prince, a man, poet and family man, is murdered with five bullets to the head. A dying, despairing and despondent mother succumbs to the banal disaster and the weight of a thankless, bitter life too heavy to bear. Faced with the disarray of his country, the son decides to set sail in search of artificial paradises under other skies. And it's a debacle. The only one left is little Sarah who, through books and poetry, tries to pick up the pieces of her life.
