About the Book

Immerse yourself in the evocative pages of "Haitian Views Through the Glass House," an exquisite collection blending poetry and prose that delves into the journey of leaving behind one's roots for the pursuit of a better life. Within these eloquent pieces, Fritzinie Lavoile weaves her deep love for Haiti, her homeland, and her personal story of immigration.

These words lay bare the struggles of not belonging, these verses vividly portray the sensation of drowning in unfamiliar waters and the search for identity. Amidst grappling with cultural appropriation, where heritage often fades into trends, Lavoile fervently underscores the importance of embracing one's origins, language, and unique identity.

The journey begins with the bittersweet tale of a love for Haiti that once filled the heart with pride, now tinged with yearning for change. The collection unfurls her personal immigration saga, encapsulating the essence of stepping onto foreign shores, brimming with excitement yet tinged with the ache of leaving cherished roots behind.

Confronting tragedy head-on, particularly the seismic tremors of the January 12, 2010 earthquake, Lavoile unveils how post-catastrophe reflections can become a canvas for introspection, igniting a gradual journey towards recovery and reconstruction.

At its heart, 'Haitian Views Through the Glass House' tenderly explores relationships-from the love of a mother to a daughter's dreams, the intricate dynamics of growing up within division, to a father's own immigration saga. Within these pages, depression is portrayed with raw honesty, and the path to forgiveness and self-love is paved with vulnerability and strength.

With empathetic fervor, the poems extend solace and inspiration to fellow immigrants, especially those pioneering new paths. The trials of not belonging evolve into the triumphant realization of finding 'home, ' a place transcending borders and residing within the heart.

Ultimately, 'Haitian Views Through the Glass House' weaves an eloquent tapestry of words that captures the essence of love-for homeland, for fellow immigrants, for identity, and for self. These compositions remind us of the beauty born from struggle, the power of embracing one's roots, and the transformative prowess inherent in both poetry and prose.
