polatai 's review for:
Damn. I don’t know who recommended this book to me as it was in my TBR but it felt like the appropriate moment to read it because *gestures vaguely* and I learned a lot like I vaguely knew that a genocide happened in Rwanda at the same time as the one in my country but not the particulars about the history. And as much as I hate in general the role of people in power doing interviews and benefiting from the people that suffer I think this was done well (I haven’t googled this book to see if I’m correct). But in this point in time the parallels between this book and real life are crazy and I couldn’t keep from nodding my head along to like the 5 chapters about the position the western world took during this genocide and the uselessness of foreign aid. Was there moments where I had to put the book down and breath? Yes there are horrible moments in the book. But guess? what that’s what genocide is.
