The first memoir from a woman born and raised in South Darfur. An incredibly powerful first-hand account of the horrors of the genocide. Halima Bashir was born into
the remote western deserts of Sudan. She grew up in a wonderfully rich environment and later went on to study medicine. At the age of twentyfour she returned to her tribe
and began practising as their first ever qualified doctor. But then a dark cloud descended upon her people.
