Ramya - I watched the documentary first about two months ago and so I didn’t remember some of the stuff that they mentioned in the book. I would watch it first and then immediately start in on the book and not wait. It’s short enough that I’m sure a rewatching after the book wouldn’t hurt.

I still haven’t investigated the Darfur situation at all (way behind the times) but this book looks really good. Thanks for mentioning it.

Each review I see I get more and more torn by what I want to choose as my pick for reading and blogging about Darfur. I have to choose something this week! Thanks for the great review.

I’m off to check out if my library has a copy of this available. Maybe it can be the book I read about Darfur for this month. Good review.
