We wish to inform you that tomorrow we will be killed with our families- Philip Gourevitch

It's hard to believe that something as terrible as the Holocaust happened within the past century, but what's worse is that it happened again less than 30 years ago in a little country called Rwanda. This book is Gourevitch's un-biased attempt to shed light on the mass extermination/ethnic cleansing of the Tutsi people. The movie Hotel Rwanda was based on facts contained in this book. It reads more as a record of accounts/interviews that the author had than an actual story. Everyone has a responsibility to know the story of Rwanda and this book is one way to do that.
