I had been an abject fan of Robert Stone since the early eighties, when I borrowed a copy of 'A Flag for Sunrise' to read on a plane to Rome. I was twenty-something, with a first novel under my belt.
To me, there is nothing more soothing than the song of a mosquito that can't get through the mesh to bite you.
I have always had a mystical attitude toward inspiration. That's my nature.
I don't call myself a very good Christian, but I think I know one when I see one, and I also think I know when I don't.
Since the 1960s, exile for Haitians is a condition that ends only to begin again.
