elephant's review against another edition
3.0
This book follows the stories of one family in Congo as they struggle with the atrocities of the LRA and the horrors that the people there have lived through. I think this book can be a good reference for people who want to know what has been going on in Congo and it has some factual information about the history and politics of the region at the end of the book. I received this book free to review from Netgalley.

A beautifully written book about real people, real life. Both the beautiful and the tragic. Lisa Shannon artfully draws emotion out of the reader through her I-feel-like-I'm-there style. My mood afterward is both melancholic & hopeful. A cord was struck.
