WHITE LIGHT
Hugh Crane celebrated his fourteenth birthday in 1938 by climbing into the bed of the familyâs black maid, Sophie Hagé. She had observed his precocity and wasnât surprised at the timing; and the deed itself, she had learned, was par for the sons and the female servants of the best families on Park Avenue. What was not normal was the passion that endured over several months, and the extent to which she herself was picked up and carried by it. Soon they were sharing secrets, just as if they were true lovers and equals, not master and servant.
âNails and glass in your shoes?â she asked him on the day that Nazi tanks crossed the border into Czechoslovakia.
âI read about it in a book about saints that I got from the library on Forty-second Street,â he said.
âBut thatâs crazy, mon.â She was from Haiti.
âBut it worked,â he said. âI saw Jesus.â
âYou saw Jesus?â
âWell,â he said bashfully. âThat wasnât just from the nails in my shoes. It was after I whipped my back with wet rope for six hours.â
Sophie gazed at him thoughtfully for a long time. âWhat you trying to do, boy?â
âIâm learning how to live without fear,â he said simply. âYou know my dad. Heâs afraid of everything and everybody. Jews, Catholics, bad omens, the government, a broken mirror ⦠you know. I just donât want to live my life that way.â
Sophie thought about it for three days. Then she told him there was a man he ought to meet.
âWhat sort of man?â he asked.
âA high priest of Voudon.â
