Discussion Leader: Ellen Getreu
Claire Limye Lanme--Claire of the Sea Light--is an enchanting child born into love and tragedy in Ville Rose, Haiti. Claire's mother died in childbirth, and on the girl's seventh birthday, her father, Nozias, decides to give her away to a local shopkeeper, who lost a child of her own, so that Claire can have a better life. Claire disappears, and as Nozias and others look for her, we are brought deep into the intertwined lives of the people who live in this small seaside town.
