Roxane Gay is an award-winning literary voice praised for her
fearless and vivid prose, and her debut collection Ayiti
exemplifies the raw talent that made her "one of the voices of our
age" (National Post, Canada). The powerful debut collection
exploring the Haitian diaspora experience from New York
Times-bestselling powerhouse Roxane Gay, now widely available for
the first time in Grove Press paperback. Clever and haunting by
turns, Ayiti explores the Haitian diaspora experience. A married
couple seeking boat passage to America prepares to leave their
homeland. A mother takes a foreign soldier into her home as a
boarder, and into her bed. And a woman conceives a daughter on the
bank of a river while fleeing a horrific massacre, a daughter who
later moves to America for a new life but is perpetually haunted by
the mysterious scent of blood. Wise, fanciful, and daring, Ayiti is
the book that put Roxane Gay on the map and now, with two
previously uncollected stories, confirms her singular vision.
