The Bone Woman: A Forensic Anthropologist's Search for Truth in the Mass Graves of Rwanda, Bosnia, Croatia, and Kosovo
Clea Koff • 2004
Devastation Rating
Our Take
Koff exhumed mass graves for the UN tribunals — Rwanda, Bosnia, Croatia, Kosovo — and wrote about what the bones say when the living will not or cannot speak. The science is meticulous; the emotional cost is present but contained, as it must be in a forensic context. A book about how bodies are made to disappear and how they can be made to testify. Evidence as justice.
