Season of Blood: A Rwandan Journey

Our Take
Keane drove into Rwanda during the killing and wrote what he saw with the precision of a man committing testimony to paper before the nightmares could blur it. His BBC dispatches won awards; this book is what the awards did not fully contain — the grief of the correspondent, the smell of the churches where the bodies still lay, the children. Always the children. A small book that weighs everything.
