The Dew Breaker by Edwidge Danticat

4.0

This is a book about the effects of Haiti's political developments on people whose sin may have been to be born Haitian. Going into this book not knowing anything really put me off especially when transitioning from one story to another. It consists of short stories about characters from Haiti and their not so pleasant experiences. However, I ended up loving the stories. I was really touched by the main story that is the title. Each story starts vaguely about different characters and with time we discover their connections or none whatsoever to THE Dew Breaker.
