Auntie Luce’s Talking Paintings by Francie Latour at Greenlight Bookstore | Recap

On September 22, 2018, Greenlight Bookstore and HCX collaborated to present award-winning Haitian-American author

Francie Latour and her book Auntie Luce’s Talking Paintings, the story of a Haitian-American girl and the unusual bond she has with her aunt, a painter who lives in Haiti. Through vivid illustrations by Ken Daley and Latour’s magical tale, young readers were transported to a world of beauty and Haitian heroes.
