Abstract:
By focusing on specific intertextual references found in Yanick Lahens's 2014 novel Bain de lune, this paper demonstrates how the long-term viability of the Haitian ecology is challenged both on a literary level and in accordance with evolving social, environmental, and identitarian realities.
