About the Book

In April of 1994, the government of Rwanda called on everyone in the Hutu majority to kill everyone in the Tutsi minority. Over the next three months, 800,000 Tutsis were murdered in the most unambiguous case of genocide since Hitler's war against the Jews. Philip Gourevitch's haunting work is an anatomy of the killings in Rwanda, a vivid history of the genocide's background, and an unforgettable account of what it means to survive in its aftermath.

About the Author :
Philip Gourevitch is a staff writer at the New Yorker and a contributing editor to Forward. He has reported from Africa, Asia, and Europe for a number of magazines, including Granta, Harper's, and the New York Review of Books. He lives in New York City. Jeff Cummings, as an audiobook narrator, has won both an Earphones Award and the prestigious Audie Award in 2015 for Best Narration in Science and Technology. He is also a twenty-year veteran of the stage, having worked at many regional theaters across the country, from A Contemporary Theatre in Seattle and the Alliance Theatre in Atlanta to the Utah Shakespeare Festival in Cedar City and the International Mystery Writers' Festival in Owensboro, Kentucky. He also spent seven seasons with the Oregon Shakespeare Festival.

Review :
"[It is the] sobering voice of witness that Gourevitch has vividly captured in his work." -- "New York Times Book Review" "A sobering, revealing, and deeply thoughtful chronicle." -- "Boston Globe" "A staggeringly good book...Gourevitch's beautiful writing drives you deep into Rwanda, his brilliant reportage tells you everything that can be seen from an event beyond imagining or explaining." -- "Philadelphia Inquirer" "An ardent story that will command listeners' attention and touch their emotions. Cummings bridges the gap between the audience and the events of 1994 by transporting them to Africa during some of Rwanda's darkest days." -- "AudioFile" "Astonishing...[Gourevitch] is masterful at placing the unspeakability of mass murder into actual people's mouths and inhabiting it in actual people's stories." -- "Newsday" "Shocking and important...clear and balanced...the voice in this book is meticulous and humane." -- "Atlanta Journal-Constitution" "The most important book I have read in many years...[Gourevitch] examines [the genocidal war in Rwanda] with humility, anger, grief, and a remarkable level of both political and moral intelligence." -- "Los Angeles Times"
