The Story behind The Violets of Usambara

The Story behind The Violets of Usambara. May 30, 2008: Our African Home. At the end of May most North Americans start thinking about holidays and travel. The summer is just around the corner, the weather may already be good enough to do interesting things outside. Along with millions of others, I’m daydreaming at the moment too, but I doubt that I’ll ever again have quite as amazing a trip as the one I took to research The Violets of Usambara.

The Story behind The Violets of Usambara: May 5: Chance or Destiny?

http://www.usambarastory.blogspot.com/2008/06/monday-may-5-chance-or-destiny-lie.html

The Story behind The Violets of Usambara. May 5: Chance or Destiny? Sunday (May 4) I had the pleasure of reading from The Violets of Usambara. At the Blue Metropolis International Literary Festival in Montreal. It was a treat to take part in Blue Met’s 10th anniversary version because the festival was deeply involved in its genesis.

The Story behind The Violets of Usambara. May 7: Stolen Wallets, Missed Flights and Happy Coincidences. What, in fact, is the difference between chance and destiny? The Dutch leg of the trip was terrific. Elin showed me around, introduced me to her friends, and I wandered the incredibly civilized city with great pleasure. Until, that is, my wallet was stolen from my purse, probably in the train station in The Hague. Chance, or destiny? Whatever if contributed greatly to The Violets of Usambara.

The Story behind The Violets of Usambara. May 28: Burundi in Spring 2008. The political situation in Burundi seems better than it was when I was there, and certainly much improved from those days in 1997 when The Violets of Usambara takes place. According to the IRIN. In late April 2008, though, things suddenly got worse. FNL forces shelled a university and the Vatican’s compound, stirring up memories of the murder. One thing sure, however, what is happening in Burundi is unlikely to make headlines here ...

The Story behind The Violets of Usambara. May 26: The Montreal Connection. The Violets of Usambara. That verisimilitude can be dangerous if it goes too far, though. When I first started writing the book and I explained that the hero Thomas Brossard was a Franco American from Boston who came to Canada in part to avoid being drafted in the Viet Nam war, and who then got involved in Federal politics, people would say: “Oh you mean so and so?
