Embrace Life: A Survivor's Path to Healing, Courage, and Hope (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780997770414)

Embrace Life

On the evening of April 6, 1994, the plane carrying the president of Rwanda

was shot down; from that moment on, 100 days of massacre began, leaving

more than 1.000.000 Tutsi people dead. Dydine Umunyana Anderson was

only four years old when the genocide against Tutsis that ravaged the fertile

"land of milk and honey" Rwanda broke out. Thirty years after the violent

onslaught of the Hutus, this testimony confronts us with the wounds of post-

colonial Africa and reveals the long process of reconciliation that Rwanda and

Dydine have gone through to heal and embrace life.
