Sinopsis

A 'must read' for arthistorians.Âá Clear testament to thestrange paradox that genius need not necessarily beinhibited by madness.It is believed that the samehurricane that killed the five hundred men on the Flagler System oversearailroad project in 1926 also killed as many as two thousand migrant farm workers, can cutters, in the sugarcanefields of South Florida.Âá All the mother fucking rain had caused a hellish flood thatsubmerged the entire region during the night.ÂáThe identities and exact number of victims from the flood were neverknown because many of them were foreign, Haitians and Dominicans mostly, andthey were all dirt poor.Âá Around here at least, if you?re dirt poor, nobody gives a fuck what happens to you, especiallyduring the night.
