Summary:
"The material in this heavily illustrated book stems from Lily Yeh's Rwandan Healing Project under the auspices of Barefoot Artists. That project included, among other things, drawing and storytelling workshops, from which the book draws. It tells the stories of two Rwandans who as small children experienced the 1994 Genocide. Their stories are framed by two chapters chronicling the transformation, in the Rugerero Survivors' Village, of a concrete burial slab into a Genocide Memorial with its bone chamber, designed by artist Lily Yeh and built by the villagers"-- Provided by publisher.
