Makenzy Orcel is a novelist and poet. Born in Port-au-Prince in 1983, he constantly travels between Haiti, the U.S and France where his publisher, Zulma Publishing house, is established. After Les Immortelles (The Immortals / Under the Peepal Tree) a very moving work of fiction about the Haiti earthquake of 2010, he is back with L’Ombre animale, and, as he always does, gives his voice to the voiceless and the deprived, and creates a powerful chorus of love, violence and hope.
