Rwanda

The Girl in the Moon Circle
by Scholastique Mukasonga

Author Scholastique Mukasonga moved from Rwanda to France in 1992, two years before the genocide in which she lost twenty-seven members of her family. In this admirable, almost lyrical piece of work she manages to reveal the very worst of humanity alongside a loving and eloquent tribute to her mother.
