Kivu: Journeys Through Eastern Congo In A Time Of Rebellion & Cold War - 9781951082550

After Congo became independent in 1960, the deep jungle region in western Congo was thrown into chaos. In stark contrast, the eastern districts near Kivu were in peace. This idyllic land of lakes and small farms bordering Rwanda was a "little paradise" that supported a people known for their good humor and humanity."Hunter's vivid descriptions of Africa, its characters and political challenges, keep us reading with an awed and some- times nostalgic sense of that era. A fine memoir that ranges from gossip to profound observation, Kivu enlightens while it entertains."-Jinny WebberAuthor of The Secret Player and Dark Venus
