The first book that legit made me cry ... The writing is superb, the story is heartbreaking, and the ending ... au nom de Dieu!

This conflict in Burundi must come to an end ...

Un chouette livre, facile et rapide à lire (200 pages environ)! On suit l’histoire de Gabriel au Burundi, de son enfance paisible jusqu’à la guerre du Rwanda. J’ai trouvé intéressant la juxtaposition de passage léger, drôle, et paisible avec des passages plus tragiques et même horrifique. Même si parfois, on passe donc d’une émotion à une autre du coup.
