Lyonel Trouillot's harrowing novel depicts a night of blazing violence in modern-day Port-au-Prince and recalls hundreds of years of violence stretching back even before the birth of Haiti in the fires of revolution. Three narrators--a madam, a taxi driver, and a post office employee--describe in almost hallucinatory terms the escalating chaos of a bloody uprising that pits the partisans of the Prophet against the murderous might of the great dictator Deceased Forever-Immortal. The drama of promise and betrayal in Haitian life inform's Street of Lost Footsteps with the grim irony and savage tenderness characteristic of writers for whom the repetitiveness of history has gone beyond tragedy, through farce, and on into insanity. With impressive originality and touching immediacy, Trouillot explores the nature of political oppression, memory, and truth.Binding Type: Paperback

Not worth your time!
Format: Paperback
The abstration level of the knowledge presented in this book is mixed and poorly organized, for example, it could leap from high level suddenly into the details of import packages and codes. This book tries to cover a loooot but achieves so little in any specific topic. Sometimes the high level logic is not even consistent, sometimes the low level details contain errors. There are nonsensical sentences, poorly formatted equations, figures should be printed in color to understand but are in black and white. While I may doubt myself of not being able to delve in at the beginning, gradually it is pretty clear that it is the poor quality of this book that drags me and makes me want to finish reading as soon as possible. I cannot believe this quality of writing was generated with the help of AI. This is an evidence that human can write much poorly than AI. All the figures from the cited papers are of poor resolution and quality. I have submitted more than 15 erratas to the publisher. These just cover the obvious mistakes or errors, and cannot cover the poor organization and logic of the book. It's such a waste of my money and time!
