Twenty years after the genocide that left the country in ruins, Canadian author Will Ferguson travels deep into Rwanda with his cohort Jean-Claude Munyezamu, who had escaped just months before the killings began. From the legendary Source of the Nile to Dian Fossey's famed "gorillas in the mist," from innovative refugee camps along the Congolese border to the world's most escapable prison, from tragic genocide sites to open savannahs and a bridge to freedom, from schoolyard soccer pitches to a cunning plan to get rich on passion-fruit, Ferguson and Munyezamu discover a country reborn. Funny, engaging, poignant, and at times heartbreaking, Road Trip Rwanda is the lively tale of two friends, the open road, and the hidden heart of a continent. Will Ferguson is the author of Beyond Belfast, which charts a 560-mile walk across Northern Ireland in the rain, Hitching Rides with Buddha, about an end-to-end journey across Japan by thumb, and I Was a Teenage Katima-victim : a Canadian odyssey. His most recent novel, 419, won the Scotiabank Giller Prize for literature.
