A marvelous, moving new collection of poems, Requiem, Rwanda has its roots in 2006, when the author made her first trip to the country. Apol's poems channel her relationships with and understandings of people post-genocide--where their stories go, how they reenter their lives, and how a country that has been deeply wounded by its history continues on. The collection includes a closing essay, "Writer as Witness."
