An interesting insight into HaitiBy Jonathan AustraliaA quite detailed account of life in Haiti from the late 1930s through to the late 60s seen through the eyes of a foreigner as well as very detailed account of initiation into voodoo. The book finishes during the era of Papa Doc so it provides an insight in to Haiti over 50 years ago . The author kept an open mind on all issues. whether politics. voodoo. Haitian history and slavery and the book is refreshingly free of opinions and judgement. It is very well written and it is obvious that Dunham liked Haiti . obviously so much so that she bought a property there.I enjoyed it thoroughly and recommend it to anyone who has an interest in Haiti and enjoys reading a well written book. One further note. when reading the part of the book devoted to voodoo you will need to constantly use the glossary for an explanation of the language used.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Island Possessed is a very good readBy Paul FigueroaAs I read different books about the history of Haiti. I came upon Island Possessed. an interesting book written by a very interesting and unique woman. Katherine Dunham. The book is primarily about her first visit to the island in 1936 as part of her anthropology study into the dance of the people of the African Diaspora. Soon. she becomes initiated into Voodoo and gives a compelling account of her initiation ceremony.Prior to reading this book. I knew very little of the author. I found her to be someone of enormous courage as someone who was willing to travel alone in some very poor countries in pursuit of her research. Katherine Dunham comes across as very accepting person as she socialized with many different people regardless of their various social classes. However. I did find this last quality to be somewhat bothersome as she became friendly with several dictators of Haiti and Argentina. In fact. Dunhams psychological profiles of Dumarsais Estime. Paul Magloire and Francois Duvalier comes across as mumbo jumbo and it is the weakest part of the book.All in all. Dunham gives a wonderful account of her trip to Haiti. She does digress a lot when telling a story but eventually returns to complete her interesting tale.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
