Non-Fiction Memoir
Immaculee Ilibagiza grew up in a country she
loved, surrounded by a family she cherished. But in 1994 her
idyllic world was ripped apart as Rwanda descended into a
bloody genocide. Immaculee’s family was brutally murdered
during a killing spree that lasted three months and claimed
the lives of nearly a million Rwandans.
Incredibly,
Immaculee survived the slaughter. For 91 days, she and seven
other women huddled silently together in the cramped
bathroom of a local pastor while hundreds of
machete-wielding killers hunted for them.
It was
during those endless hours of unspeakable terror that
Immaculee discovered the power of prayer, eventually
shedding her fear of death and forging a profound and
lasting relationship with God. She emerged from her bathroom
hideout having discovered the meaning of truly unconditional
love—a love so strong she was able seek out and forgive her
family’s killers.
The triumphant story of this
remarkable young woman’s journey through the darkness of
genocide will inspire anyone whose life has been touched by
fear, suffering, and loss.
