Meer over het boek
Set in Burundi during the early 1990s, the story follows ten-year-old Gabriel, who enjoys a blissful childhood filled with adventure and camaraderie in his expatriate neighborhood. However, this idyllic life is soon disrupted by the looming threat of civil war and genocide in the region. Through Gabriel's perspective, the narrative explores the loss of innocence and the impact of historical turmoil on a child's world. Blending tragedy with humor, it serves as a poignant homage to both a dark chapter in Africa's history and the joyful moments that once defined his youth.
