| Abstract
|
:
|
During the 1994 Rwandan massacres, a humble hotel manager maneuvered successfully to save the lives of 1,268 of his countrymen in the Kigali hotel. As the son of a Hutu father and Tutsi mother, Rusesabagina grew up keenly aware of relations, hostile and otherwise, between these two groups, and his recollections show how this seemingly spontaneous genocide reflected growing conflicts in Rwandan politics and society.
