In April of 1994, nearly a million Rwandans were killed in what
would prove to be one of the swiftest, most terrifying killing
sprees of the 20th century. In Murambi, The Book of Bones, Boubacar
Boris Diop comes face to face with the chilling horror and
overwhelming sadness of the tragedy. Here, the power of Diop's
acclaimed novel is available to English-speaking readers through
Fiona Mc Laughlin's crisp translation and a compelling afterword by
Diop. The novel recounts the story of a Rwandan history teacher,
Cornelius Uvimana, who was living and working in Djibouti at the
time of the massacre. He returns to Rwanda to try to comprehend the
death of his family and to write a play about the events that took
place there. As the novel unfolds, Cornelius begins to understand
that it is only our humanity that will save us, and that as a
writer, he must bear witness to the atrocities of the genocide.
