Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Exploring the complex relationship between Haiti and the Dominican Republic, the book delves into their shared yet divided history and culture on the island of Hispaniola. It examines the significance of the rooster as a national symbol and the cultural practice of cockfighting, questioning what these aggressive images reveal about the nations' identities. Through this lens, Michele Wucker investigates the deeper implications of their rivalry and the reasons behind the glorification of such violent traditions in both societies.
