This book is depressing

“[...] That other Obeah, Didier, warned us that you would be the death of us, but nobody listen. But now, Florita is dead. Georgie is dead. Mamo is dead. I will not let you get me, you devil child. I ready for you. So come all you all want. Go bury Mamo! Go ahead! Only the dead bury the dead.”

"Marie-Josée had come to take me from the Bàs-Viard, away from Madame Salize, to the strange cold of Canada, a place I had never heard of in my life."
