Theirs is a closed system of belief - Haiti to investigate two documented cases of zombis -people who had reappeared in Haitian society years after they had been officially declared dead and had been buried
Wade Davis
from the editor:
In April 1982, ethnobotanist Wade Davis arrived in Haiti to investigate two documented cases of zombis-people who had reappeared in Haitian society years after they had been officially declared dead and had been buried. Drawn into a netherworld of rituals and celebrations, Davis penetrated the vodoun mystique deeply enough to place zombification in its proper context within vodoun culture. In the course of his investigation, Davis came to realize that the story of vodoun is the history of Haiti-from the African prig' its people to the successful Haitian independence movement, down to present day, where vodoun culture is, in effect, the government of Haiti's countryside.
The Serpent and the Rainbow combines anthropological investigation with a remarkable personal adventure to illuminate and finally explain a phenomenon that has long fascinated Americans.
"Zombis do come back from the dead, and Wade Davis knows how."
-WASHINGTON POST BOOK WORLD
"An account solving one of the most puzzling biological mysteries of all time."
-OMNI
WADE DAVIS received his doctorate in ethnobotany from Harvard University. Author of six books, including One River, he divides his time between Washington, D.C., Vancouver, and a remote fishing lodge in northern British Columbia.
