Tears of the Desert: A Memoir of Survival in Darfur by Halima Bashir

challenging dark emotional informative inspiring sad tense

5.0

a harrowing personal account of survival amongst intense tragedy, loss, and war. the author’s willingness to share her story in order to bring awareness of the war in Darfur is beyond remarkable, detailing the most personal of details about love and sacrifice and triumph. it’s certainly not an easy read but i highly recommend it, especially for part of a deeper understanding of the personal impact of war on human lives 

the conflict, genocide and war continues to rage in Sudan at this present moment. over 10,000 people have been killed.
