What Is the What by Dave Eggers
5.0

So good, and soooo heartbreaking. Quite a few years ago I got interested in the plight of the Lost Boys from Sudan. I looked into ways to help and it seemed most of them required money (I was starting college around this time). This book re-sparked that flame.

My god, the atrocities people live through...CHILDREN, live through. Quite often many people did not live through. But this poor man went through so much, one thing after another. I looked him up after this and read he is doing good things for his old country and most humans, since he was kind enough to share this story. My heart is forever hurting for and because of humanity.
