Barbara Hoffert of Library Journal stated that the book "is related with brave, sobering, steely-eyed calm." [5] I can’t give this memoir less than five stars, although it is a disturbing book, that caused my reactions to sway between sadness and anger.I happen to know many Lebanese who are immigrants in Canada, they have worked hard, they're serious people, they fled the war but they weren't psychotics who got turned on by their own sisters. And they're not a threat, or terrorists-in-the-make. what the hell is this author trying to say?? What is wrong with him? When Maradona scored with his hand people accepted that as part of the game. Anything the ref doesn’t see is fine.’ Mukasonga’s] haunting, urgent personal history of the Rwandan genocide (translated by Jordan Stump) will deeply shade your map.” — New York Times Book Review

Do not wait until it's too late. Buy and read this uncomfortable, disquieting tale of a country that lost its mind and then threw its soul away. We in the US should not be forced to endure this, when we still can head it off. I remember when going to hunt there was places I was told to never approach not for fear of mines but because it contained Mass Graves where the former or last Somalian Government used to kill my tribe in a collective way, i remember always finding bones there when floods come and makes some bones resurface.

No, everything had to be perfect, every morsel of food had to be well served — presentation, always presentation, the ultimate mask."

You know, we come to these countries for refuge and to find better lives, but it is these countries that made us leave our homes in the first place.... these countries we live in talk about democracy but they do not want democracy. They only want dictators. It is easier for them to deal with dictators than to have democracy in the countries we came from. I fought for democracy. I was tortured for democracy."

I still love Harry to pieces. I say it all the time: I’m so attracted to the detective stories where the detective is flawed or broken and lets his private life mix with his work. Harry does this exactly; he tends to blur the lines and to act in ways that aren’t always okay or legal. I’m always excited to see how he’ll untangle himself from trouble when it happens. I have high hopes that he’ll be able to work through his demons as I move along through the books. I just want Harry to be happy and healthy. But I have loved the progression of his story so far. The first pogroms against the Tutsis broke out on All Saints’ Day, 1959. The machinery of the genocide had been set into motion. It would never stop. Until the final solution, it would never stop. Norway's ambassador to Thailand is found stabbed to death in a brothel on the outskirts of Bangkok. [1] Oslo detective Harry Hole is sent to help the Thai police solve the crime before the scandal hits the newspapers. Starting at the embassy in Bangkok, Hole uncovers tensions between career diplomats and political appointees, as well as shameful secrets of the ambassador's family and various embassy staff. [2] Hole learns that the ambassador had lost heavily in betting on Thai horse racing and had become indebted to notorious loan sharks. Following this lead, Hole along with his new Thai colleagues penetrate the city's shadier neighborhoods, leading to some spectacular violent confrontations but no real headway in the case. Genocide: violence against members of a national, ethnic, racial or religious group with the intent to destroy the entire group. A horrifying word. A an even more horrifying act.It’s not a question of morality. If you’re a target striker in a football team you’ll always be in a semi-offside position. Rules are there to be bent.’ And of course, in typical Nesbo fashion: as Møller makes his decision as to whom to send to Thailand, indubitably feeling coerced by his political superiors, he glances at a portrait of Trygve Lie, former UN secretary General (known for his stubbornness and arrogance) and Møller in a masterful move says "yes", to sending Harry Hole. After all, who is more stubborn and arrogant than his own Harry Hole and if so chosen by his superiors (albeit with some feelings of trepidation) who is he to stand in the way of his superiors?
