Zustand: Good. : Memory at Bay es una novela estructurada en monólogos que alternan entre la viuda postrada en cama de un notorio dictador (un retrato de Papa Doc Duvalier) y la joven emigrante que atiende sus necesidades y cuya madre fue víctima de las atrocidades del dictador. Ninguna de las dos puede leer los pensamientos de la otra, pero sus flashbacks y reminiscencias proporcionan relatos radicalmente contrastantes del régimen de Duvalier. Mucho más que una recapitulación de la historia reciente de Haití, la novela es también una exploración sutil del poder de la memoria.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Winner of the prestigious Prix Carbet--an award won by such distinguished authors as Maryse Condé, Jamaica Kincaid, and Raphaël Confiant-- Memory at Bay is now available in an English translation that brings to life this powerful novel by one of Haiti's most vital authors, Évelyne Trouillot. Trouillot introduces us to a bedridden widow of a notorious dictator (in effect, a portrait of Papa Doc Duvalier) and the young émigré who attends to her needs but who harbors a secret--the bitter loss she feels for her mother, a victim of the dictator's atrocities. The story that unfolds is a deftly plotted psychological drama in which the two women in turn relive their radically contrasting accounts of the dictator's regime. Partly a retelling of Haiti's nightmarish history under Duvalier, and partly an exploration of the power of memory, Trouillot's novel takes a suspenseful turn when the aide contemplates murdering the old widow. Memory at Bay was praised by the Prix Carbet committee for the way it treats the enigmas of destiny and for a pairing of characters whose voices bring the narrative to the edge of the ineffable. …
