    About this ebook

    Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

    #1 In April, the nocturnal rains leave in their wake black clouds that mask the first rays of the sun. On April 6, 1994, the President of Rwanda, Juvénal Habyarimana, was assassinated upon his return from a visit to Burundi. The massacres of the genocide began that same night in Kigali, then spread to Rwanda’s provincial towns and cities, and a few days later reached the hills.

    #2 In Kibungo, the school playground was as packed on the first day of classes as it was in Nyamata, but with adults. Everyone was talking about the events of the previous day, shouting and cracking lots of jokes.

    #3 The group heads to a cabaret, where they eat and drink with gusto. Meanwhile, thirty kilometers away, Léopord and old Élie clamber into the back of a truck driving through Nyamata.

    #4 The men from the commune of Nyamata, Dans le nu de la vie: Récits des marais rwandais.
