Haitian American poet D. Colin weaves a powerful, colorful tapestry and transports us into the beauty and pain of the experiences lived by those in the culture she so vividly brings to life. She imbues us with a sense of respect that is demanded by the resolve of a people so strongly and clearly heard through her verse.
From the publisher:“Dreaming in Kreyol is a collection of poems and prose written in Haitian history, culture and family. D. Colin (Danielle Colin) writes of the Haiti she knows and hopes for through poems celebrating the landscape and people, and prose reflecting on the 2010 earthquake that shook Haiti to its core. This first publication by the author opens a window into a personal world of Haiti, dancing between languages and experience.”
