This gritty translated novel locates the power of resistance in women, and in the pen. A KNIFE IN THE SKY is Haitian-Qu b coise writer Marie-C lie Agnant's most recent novel. Like most of the author's oeuvre, the book is preoccupied with colonial imposition and its weight specifically on women. In A KNIFE IN THE SKY, Agnant locates the power of resistance in women, and in the pen: the novel's first narratrix, Mika, is a journalist dangerously engaged in the pursuit of truth during the repressive Duvalier regime, supported by a cast largely made up of other strong women; the second is her granddaughter, a student from Grenada named Junon. Based on the lived history of those who survived the Duvalierists, A KNIFE IN THE SKY is brutal, terrifying, and hopeful. Fiction.
