He wrote a book about it: Never the Hope Itself: Love and Ghosts in Latin America and Haiti. From there he ended up in Barcelona, where he and his partner are raising their three kids. For ten years Hadden was the Europe Correspondent for PRI's The World, (WGBH Boston public radio). He now makes documentary films. Everything Turns Invisible is his first novel.
