Grateful to be able to share this gorgeous cover, particularly given that it features a painting by Fignolé's fellow-Spiralist Frankétienne, who passed away last week.

Appearing in English for the first time, Jean-Claude Fignolé’s novel "Quiet Dawn" tells an enthralling story of Haiti’s transition from French colony to independent Black republic. Read the intro by Kaiama L. Glover & @soccerpolitics.bsky.social for free now:

Cover of Quiet Dawn by Jean-Claude Fignolé, translated by Kaiama Glover and Laurent Dubois. In the top half of the cover, title text and bylines sit against a black-blue gradient background. A small graphic of a rising sun divides the text. The lower half of the cover features abstract art by Haitian artist Frankétienne, in the bold colors characteristic of his work. The piece depicts human silhouettes that emerge from a marbled, rhizomatic structure.
