Scholastique Mukasonga’s memoir serves as a poignant tribute to her mother, Stefania, who perished during the 1994 Rwandan genocide. Through vivid, sensory-rich prose, the author reconstructs the daily rituals and cultural traditions of a life irrevocably altered by violence, offering a profound meditation on memory, maternal devotion, and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of systematic erasure.
