Description
Do Not Disturb: The Story of a Political Murder and an African Regime Gone Bad
A new book from Michela Wrong, author of In the Footsteps of Mr Kurtz, this book explores the career of Paul Kagame and the legacy of the Rwandan genocide. It offers a dramatic recasting of the modern history of Africa's Great Lakes region, vividly sourced from direct testimony of key participants.
The traditional narrative of Rwanda's recent past is challenged, as Wrong examines the questions that have dogged the region: the circumstances surrounding the missile that killed the presidents of Rwanda and Burundi, the mass killings that followed, and the ruthless power struggles that followed the rebels' victory.
