    Haitian writing is one of the richest literary traditions in the Americas, and yet is little known outside of Haiti. This book is an introduction to this literature, focusing on the period from 1946 to the present, a time in which exile has become the dominant theme in Haitian writing. Reading post-1946 Haitian writing as a literature of exile, the chapters analyze key novels by the most important figures of each generation: Jacques-Stephen Alexis, René Depestre, Émile Ollivier, Dany Laferrière, and Edwidge Danticat. The emphasis is on close, detailed readings, and on understanding the particular, the personal, and the testimonial intimacy that characterizes exiled writing. Martin Munro also considers Haitian literature in the context of broader exiled writing from the Caribbean and elsewhere, and argues that the story of Haitian post-1946 fiction is one that demands to be re-read, re-interpreted, and relayed to a wider, global audience that is only just awakening to the long-held concerns of Haiti's writers.
