1936-09: (The Butterfly and the Flame — Perez Instructing Her Niece to Return Again and Again: “Like the Butterfly Lover of Light Returns to the Flame to Burn Its Wing If You Go There One Day You Will Return Repeatedly to Re-Immerse Your Soul Again at the Living Source of the Ancestors’ Faith” — Then Asking “The Work Is Titanic — What Have We Done Since? Do Giants Procreate Dwarves?”): Perez instructed her niece to return to the Citadelle again and again: like the butterfly, lover of light, returns to the flame to burn its wing, if you go there one day, you will return, repeatedly, to re-immerse your soul again at the living source of the ancestors’ faith. Then she asked: the work is titanic — what have we done since? Do giants procreate dwarves? The question was addressed to a four-year-old but aimed at the nation — a challenge to every generation that inherited the revolutionary legacy to measure itself against the scale of what King Henry Christophe had built.
