I‘ve read a lot about this genocidal massacre but I didn‘t know that there were warnings ahead of time. I‘ve barely started this book and it‘s already overwhelming

And to finish the quote above, the Hutus who sympathized with the Tutsis were among the first murdered

DGRachel I tried to read it years ago and just couldn‘t. I had to put it down. I keep thinking I want to try again, but I don‘t know if I can. 4h

Three Weeks in December | Audrey Schulman

Pickpick

In 1899, Jeremy is in Rwanda overseeing building a railroad when two lions begin killing the workers (like the Ghost and the Darkness if you‘ve seen the movie or heard about the true story). In 2000, Max, a young woman with Aspbergers, is looking for a plant that could be the basis for a new life-saving drug in the mountains of Rwanda. Their stories are told alternately. And how they are intertwined will come as a complete surprise at the end ⬇️

Texreader and in just a few words. I was pretty impressed. Both stories are very good, especially Max‘s story for me. The description of how Aspbergers affected her was so eye-opening, as was her botanical knowledge. There are some lovable (but realistic) gorillas 🦍 but also roving soldiers of a warlord threatening the people and the gorillas. In Jeremy‘s story, the descriptions of the lions‘ actions can be gross, but his story is good. Recommended. ⬇️ 5h
