| Summary: | Shorty is a Haitian boy trapped in the rubble of a hospital when an earthquake hits the country. As Shorty waits for a rescue that may never come, he becomes aware of a presence reaching out to him; a man named Toussaint l'Ouverture, the Haitian slave turned revolutionary leader whose life was marred by violence and whose own end came in darkness. And though separated by centuries, what this modern boy from the slums and the visionary black leader have in common will leave listeners shivering. |
