Jean Hatzfeld0.0 Un matin brûlant de mai 2003, une file d’anciens tueurs rwandais franchit les portes du pénitencier de Rilima, chantant des alléluias. À la surprise de tous, notamment des rescapés qui les regardent s’installer à nouveau sur leurs parcelles, à Nyamata et sur les collines de Kibungo ou Kanzenze. Comment vivre désormais côte à côte, que se dire quand l’essentiel est indicible, que ramène-t-on de là-bas ?

Daniel Mendelsohn0.0 In this rich and riveting narrative, a writer's search for the truth behind his family's tragic past in World War II becomes a remarkably original epic--part memoir, part reportage, part mystery, and part scholarly detective work--that brilliantly explores the nature of time and memory, family and history.
Joan Didion3.9 Didion's husband, the writer John Gregory Dunne, died of a heart attack, just after they had returned from the hospital where their only child, Quintana, was lying in a coma. This book is a memoir of Dunne's death, Quintana's illness, and Didion's efforts to make sense of a time when nothing made sense. "She's a pretty cool customer," one hospital worker says of her, and, certainly, coolness was always part of the addictive appeal of Didion's writing. The other part was the dark side of cool, the hyper-nervous awareness of the tendency of things to go bad. In 2004, Didion had her own disasters to deal with, and she did not, she feels, deal with them coolly, or even sanely. This book is about getting a grip and getting on; it's also a tribute to an extraordinary marriage.
