Madame Dread A Tale of Love, Voodoo and Civil Strife in Haiti

"Civil violence, mass slaughter, coups, and U.S. intervention: Kathie Klarreich saw all this up close and on a daily basis as a reporter in Haiti. Often risking life and limb, mistaken for a CIA agent, losing a man she loved to an assassin's bullet - she tenaciously soldiered on, establishing credentials and contacts, and developed an unsparing eye that led major news organizations such as the New York Times, NBC, CNN, PBS, Time, and NPR to count on her expertise throughout Haiti's turbulent years." "This memoir interweaves shattering political events with a personal narrative about the Haitian musician she eventually marries (and has a child with), who turns out to be as complicated as the political events she covered."--BOOK JACKET.Klarreich, Kathie is the author of 'Madame Dread A Tale of Love, Voodoo and Civil Strife in Haiti', published 2005 under ISBN 9781560257806 and ISBN 1560257806.
