Beverly Bell. This chapter examines the social fault lines caused by the Haitian earthquake. Haiti sits directly over a major fault system made up of multiple faults, one or more of which slipped on Janu. Beverly Bell’s book, "Fault Lines: Views Across Haiti’s Divide", tells the post earthquake story in Haiti from the perspective of those that suffered most directly from the catastrophic damage and then suffered the added indignity of a totally misdirected disaster response. As Bell points out, “the disaster aid was an aid disaster”. Her new book, Fault Lines, is a searing account of the first year after the earthquake. Bell explores how strong communities and an age-old gift culture have helped Haitians survive in the wake of an unimaginable disaster, one that only compounded the preexisting social and economic distress of their society.
