This book demonstrated so clearly emotional themes I have seen play out in the lives of loved ones in my life who are refugees from Rwanda. The themes were particularly relevant for those who are still young adults. I wish I had read it years ago. If someday Clemantine Wamariya decides to write another memoir reflecting on the decades of her life still to come, I will read it eagerly.
