Growing Up in Par-a-dox [Large Print]

By Bob Lapierre

My life unfolds in Ayti, marked by European invasions, and explores my deep connection to Africa. Amidst post-European challenges, Africa's spiritual values resonate within me. The narrative delves into my enduring link with ancestors, capturing their historical struggles, spiritual awakenings, and cultural moments, often misunderstood as 'superstition' and 'mystical.' I navigate shared ignorance and failures, acknowledging my privilege.

The story also highlights encounters with a magical godmother,

weaving enchantment into my journey. This mystical presence adds a layer to the broader themes of ancestral heritage, cultural nuances, and dual belonging. As I explore my roots, the narrative unveils shared history, embracing both suffering and profound joy dismissed by some as superstitions. In this arras, I am one of the privileged few, intricately connected to Ayti and the spiritual essence of Africa."
