"NOUVEAU HAITIAH" by Donald McEwing |
NOUVEAU HAITIAH
The speculative fiction novel Nouveau Haitiah describes a primitive human culture on an alien world, with a cast of memorable characters including the strong heroine, The Official Hostess, Victoria; Leon, whose quest for salvation leads him to seek The Fountain of Youth; Professor Alihak, the Grand Maestro and author of a book about time and redemption; and Odette, a sociopath specializing in poisons, powders, and perfumes. Through unifying imagery, the novel’s heroes, heroines, and villains explore the universal themes of memory and revenge, our relationship with nature, and how the art of reading connects them all.
