"Part elegy, part musings on the great mysteries oflife, Vodou Saints is at the same time an inspirationalstory of lessons learned from Haitians in the overthree decades that Dr. Arthur Fournier has workedwith them, both in Miami and in Haiti. These lessonsspan the early days of the AIDS epidemic in Miami,the political turmoil of the Aristide years, theearthquake that devastated Haiti in 2010 and mostrecently the outbreak of cholera. Through all theseexperiences Haitians have taught Dr. Fournier aworldview quite different from his own. Fournieruses this adopted worldview not only to deal withtragedy in his own life but to make sense out of theseeming contradictions between science, philosophyand theology concerning the interface between Manand the unknown. This is a profound book that couldbest be compared to Albert Camus' "The Plague"",except this story is real! Consistently thoughtprovoking and inspiring - at times humbling andeven disturbing - this story is more than a chronicleof the disasters that have befallen this poor andpoorly understood country or the resilience of itspeople. It's also a story of Fournier's own journeytowards redemption and healing. A quest to be notonly a better doctor, but also a better person - aVodou Saint."
