Audiobook

I had only a meager understanding about what has gone on in Darfur when I read The Translator by Daoud Hari. It’s not a pleasant topic but it is one that everyone should be aware of.

On the same topic, this book deals with the atrocities witnessed by Brian Steidle as he served on the Joint Military Commission monitoring the Sudanese ceasefire and his frustration that no one seems to care.

This book did not give a lot of the political and social information behind the conflict which could have been valuable but there are other resources available that can do that. Steidle’s eye-witness accounts of what he saw are both horrific and gripping and I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to know more about the crisis in Darfur.(4/5)
