3-13-10 We Wish To Inform You That Tomorrow We Will Be Killed With Our Families by Philip Gourevitch - Non-Fiction

4 - I became interested in this book after seeing the movie "Hotel Rwanda" which was my first exposure to the 1994 Rwandan genocide. I finally found a library that had the book available. "Hotel Rwanda" was just one story which, horrible as it was, couldn't make the viewer realize the scope of the atrocities. Nor could it really go into the background of the country to see what led up to those bloody months. Gourevitch tells the story of the country and people of Rwanda with history and survivors' stories. Rwanda is an incredibly complex country and the reasons behind the genocide are complex as well. If you have any interest in foreign history or in the first world nations' roles in international growth and wars read this book. It will move you.
