Bertin's River

By Jean Garry Cantave

Bertin's River is a short novel packed with many interesting characters; even the narrator is at times deeply engaged in the story, but the dominant figure is the river itself as, in subtle but significant ways, it shapes life in Bertin. The story is told through the lens of a retired man who, after spending most of his adult life in the US, decides against all logic to return to his motherland, Haiti, to live his "vieux jours" (last days). He came physically and mentally ready to relax and fully retire. Will he be able to do so?
