This text provides an in-depth analysis of fictional responses written in response to the Rwandan genocide of 1994. Through the course of the work, the reader is taken on a journey from the events leading up to the genocide, the horrific massacres that were carried out against the Tutsi population, and finally to modern-day Rwanda, where the country comes to terms with a brutal episode in its recent past. Nicki Hitchcott focuses her analytic study on a group of African authors, including Rwandans, who were brought together as part of the Rwanda: écrire par devoir de memoire initiative in 1998 to write a variety of works to commemorate and reflect on the genocide.
