A Wedding in Haiti (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781616202804)

" A] beguiling memoir of family and culture."--O, The Oprah Magazine

In a story that travels beyond borders and between families, acclaimed Dominican novelist and poet Julia Alvarez reflects on the joys and burdens of love--for her parents, for her husband, and for a young Haitian boy known as Piti. In this intimate true account of a promise kept, Alvarez takes us on a journey into experiences that challenge our way of thinking about history and how it can be reimagined when people from two countries--traditional enemies and strangers--become friends.

Julia Alvarez's new novel, Afterlife, is available now.
