fuzzylibrarian 's review for:
A Long Way Gone: Memoirs of a Boy Soldier
by Ishmael Beah
This is a hard book to read and harder to enjoy because of the heavy topic, but it is another good reminder that we ocassionally need to step outside of ourselves and our relatively safe and comfortable lives and realize that there are people and places in such turmoil. Also, the story of Ishmael's journey from innocent child to refuge to soldier and then his subsequent deprogramming and return to a "normal" life is very compelling.
