Haiti’s English-language newspaper, the Haiti Sun (2 December 1956), owned by Bernard Diederich, reports Graham Greene’s second visit to the country (far right-hand column)
Graham with Catherine Walston during their 1956 visit to Haiti. The couple visited the village of Carrefour where some of Haiti’s top artists had set up La Galerie Brochette; both were captivated by the work on show.
The American newspaperman Larry Allen of the Associated Press who was the model for the character of Granger in Graham’s novel The Quiet American
Roger Coster, proprietor of the Grand Hotel Oloffson, Port-au-Prince, Haiti, in welcoming mode; Graham stayed here in 1956, then again in 1963, by which time Coster (and most of the guests) had left.
François ‘Papa Doc’ Duvalier on his election day, 22 September 1957; he was inaugurated as president for a six-year term a month later.
Graham talking to French newsman Max Clou at the house of former Dominican dictator Rafael Trujillo near San Cristóbal, Dominican Republic, following his 1963 trip to Papa Doc’s terrifying Haiti
The first group of Haitian anti-Duvalier rebels training with antiquated weapons in the Dominican Republic in May 1963 for an incursion into Haiti that never happened
Above, left and right: A public execution ordered by Papa Doc in
1964 of two members of the Jeune Haiti resistance movement; Graham worked this into The Comedians.
Bernard Diederich (with camera) talking to combatants on the Constitutional side in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, during the civil war of 1965
The Haitian Revolutionary Armed Forces, known as the Kamoken, in Haiti’s pine forest
Fr Jean-Claude Bajeux, a Haitian priest of the Holy Ghost Order, celebrating Mass for Haitian exiles in the Dominican countryside
Kamoken leader Fred Baptiste (centre with hat) and his guerrillas sheltered in a small ‘chalet’ in Santo Domingo
In the centre of Hispaniola, divided between the Spanish-speaking Dominican Republic and Creole-speaking Haiti, were a few miles of highway called the International Road. Here, during the border trip in 1965, Graham tempted fate and insisted on taking a walk into Haiti where he was then considered an enemy of Papa Doc’s regime.
Above: Fr Jean-Claude Bajeux at the border; not long before, his family had been seized by Papa Doc and ‘disappeared’.
Left: Fred Baptiste in 1965, around the time Bernard Diederich took Graham to meet the Kamoken at their base in an old asylum for the insane at Nigua, Dominican Republic
Graham and Fr Jean-Claude Bajeux during the 1965 trip in the company of Dominican soldiers at the Rio Dajabón, which forms part of the border between Haiti and the Dominican Republic; it is commonly known as the Massacre River as it has been the scene of a number of atrocities, most recently in 1937 when Dominican soldiers killed some 20,000 Haitians, many on the banks of the river.
The Hotel Brisas Massacre de Mariav de Rodriguez, named after the events of 1937, in the border town of Restauración
Graham and Fr Jean-Claude Bajeux (left) on the bridge over the Massacre River at Dajabón, from which Graham photographed Haiti from the relative safety of no man’s land (below).
Bernard Diederich changing a tyre on his Volkswagen after returning to Santo Domingo following the border trip
Graham Greene Démasqué, Papa Doc’s case against Graham following publication of The Comedians; the 92-page pamphlet included such denunciations of its subject as ‘a liar, a cretin, a stool pigeon’.
The poster advertising the film adaptation of the 1967 film of The Comedians (left); the film was finally shown in Haiti in 1986 (above), nineteen years after its original release.
Left and below: General Omar Torrijos, the Panamanian leader, in his element among his people in the countryside
