Book
Paperback. Condition: Good. It is 1937, on the Dominican side of the Haiti border. Amabelle, orphaned at the age of eight when her parents drowned, is a maid to the young wife of an army colonel. She has grown up in this household, a faithful servant, even delivering the Seqora's babies in an emergency and supporting her in her grief at one infants death. Sebastien is a field hand, an itinerant sugarcane cutter. They are Haitians, useful to the Dominicans but not really welcome. There are rumors that in other towns Haitians are being persecuted, even killed. But there are always rumors, jealousies, fears.Amabelle loves Sebastien. He is handsome despite the sugarcane scars on his face and his callused hands. She longs to become his wife and walk into their future. Instead, terror enfolds them. But the story does not end here: it begins.The Farming of Bones is about love, fragility, barbarity, dignity, remembrance, and the only triumph possible for the persecuted and the innocent: to endure. Sticker with previous owner's name on first page. 312 pages.
