A review by bookmarish
The Dew Breaker by Edwidge Danticat

4.0

You can tell by her use of language that Danticat was first a poet. This novel in stories delves into the lives of Haitian-Americans, their pasts and memories and the violence that connects them. The characters all intersect in subtle and artful ways, and the stories are rich with the pain of displacement and finding identity in America. Beautifully written.
