Jean Hatzfeld joined Liberation newspaper in 1975 and travelled to Rwanda after the massacres that took place there in 1994. He would go on to make many more visits to Rwanda over the next ten years, notably to Nyamata in the marshland regions. Stories from the Rwandan Marshlands brings together accounts from the three books he devoted to this subject:
Life Laid Bare (France Culture Prize 2001),
Machete Season (Femina Non-Fiction Prize and Joseph Kessel Prize 2004) and
The Antelope’s Strategy (Medicis Prize 2007). A compilation of eyewitness stories and candid accounts. Heart-wrenching.
