When Nyamuragi, an adolescent mute, attempts to ask a young woman
in rural Burundi for directions to an appropriate place to relieve
himself, his gestures are mistaken as premeditation for rape. To
the young woman's community, his fleeing confirms his guilt,
setting off a chain reaction of pursuit, mob justice, and
Nyamuragi's attempts at explanation. Young Burundian novelist
Roland Rugero's second novel Baho!, the first Burundian novel to
ever be translated into English, explores the concepts of
miscommunication and justice against the backdrop of war-torn
Burundi's beautiful green hillsides.
