Now, in The Strategy of Antelopes, he talks with both the Hutus and Tutsis he'd come to know, some of the killers who had been released from prison or returned from Congolese exile, and the Tutsi escapees who must now tolerate them as neighbours. How are they managing with the process of reconciliation? In their hearts is it possible? The enormously varied and always surprising answers he gets suggest that the political ramifications of the international community's efforts to insist on resolution after these murderous episodes are incalculable. This is an astonishing exploration of the pain of memory, the nature of hope, and the ineradicability of grief. -- Publishers description "In The Strategy of Antelopes, Jean Hatzfeld returns to Rwanda to talk with the people he d come to know Hutu Killers who had been released from prison or returned from Congolese exile, and Tutsi survivors who are now asked to tolerate them as neighbours."
