摘要

The story begins and ends in the forest, begins and ends with Manuel’s words: “Haiti is dead. There is no more Haiti” (p. 6). It begins and ends with philosophical meditations and Vodou reflections on what it means to live dyingly or die livingly, to be suspended “between life and death” in Port-au-Prince. In this way, Greg Beckett’s story parallels in strikingly similar, yet methodologically distinct ways, my own book “Riding with Death”: Vodou Art and Urban Ecology in the Streets of Port-au-Prince (2018). Our research period and sources overlap; it is, in fact, almost unimaginable that we did not (at some juncture) cross paths, perhaps on Rue Capois or Boulevard Jean-Jacques Dessalines or even Rue Martissant; and I know intimately, lovingly, the places and the people whose lives he brings to story. His There is No More Haiti, indeed, narrates many lives, those of Haitians across the full social spectrum and even outsiders like Canadian director Cameron Brohman.It does so through conversation, recollection, memories, and even dreams. It is a broken story of crisis as uttered in two tongues—English and Kreyòl—sometimes in translation; and it beautifully accomplishes its goal of giving “a Haitian account of crisis” (p. 12). In all these ways, Beckett offers us a wonderful archive.
