圖書(shū)介紹

Haiti is an island where people do not always die - they only sleep. Voodoo can bring dead people back to life. Voodoo can speak to the spirits of all things, alive or dead. Voodoo is the Magic of Haiti. There are still people, today, who use voodoo magic to speak to the dead. Or perhaps you don't believe in magic...?

This is a story about the fight between the old world and the new world. James Conway wants to bring the new world to Haiti. He wants to build new houses, shops, and hotels. Most of all, he wants to make money. Lee is an old man who understands and loves "important" person in the new world. But Kee understands people. Kee understands James Conway better than James Conway understands himself. And Kee understands voodoo.

本書(shū)的故事發(fā)生在海地的巫毒島上，來(lái)自美國(guó)的房地產(chǎn)開(kāi)發(fā)商康威先生準(zhǔn)備將島上的一處墓地開(kāi)發(fā)成現(xiàn)代化建筑。Kee是當(dāng)?shù)刈钣忻奈锥窘潭髫暎╤oungan），祖父巴隆?撒麥迪（Baron Samedi）（...
