Description
Do Not Disturb book by Michela Wrong
Do Not Disturb is a gripping account of Rwanda's political history, the 1994 genocide, and the complex forces that shaped the country in its aftermath. Journalist Michela Wrong examines the rise and fall of Paul Kagame and the Rwandan Patriotic Front, offering a critical look at power, political repression, regional conflict, and the international response to Rwanda.
The book follows the story of Patrick Karegeya, a former Rwandan intelligence chief who became increasingly critical of Kagame's government before his death in exile in South Africa. Through Karegeya's life and the experiences of others connected to Rwanda's political establishment, Wrong explores the tensions between the country's public image and the realities of political power.
Detailed, investigative, and controversial, Do Not Disturb encourages readers to examine Rwanda's recent history beyond simplified narratives and to consider the difficult questions surrounding leadership, justice, security, and accountability in post-genocide Africa.
