Coles SAFARI: A Journey through Fire and Hope: From the hills of Bukavu to the Slums of Nairobi at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
In July 1994, genocide tore through Rwanda, and its echoes crossed into Bukavu in eastern Congo. Refugees flooded the city, costs soared, insecurity deepened, and daily life slowly unravelled. Two years later, Congo itself was engulfed in war, forcing families to cling to what they held most dear: their children and the fragile hope of a safer future.
Safari retraces those turbulent years through the eyes of a boy growing up in Bukavu, caught between memory and survival. It captures not only the devastation of conflict but also the resilience of ordinary people, neighbours who shared what little they had, mothers who shielded their children with love, and youths who dreamed of escape even as the walls closed in.
From the green hills of Bukavu to the crowded alleys of Nairobi in the early 2000s, this book is a testimony of displacement, endurance, and the search for belonging. A journey through fire, and toward hope.
