Description
The story of Deogratias, a young man from the central African nation of Burundi. In 1993, he was forced onto a terrifying journey. Deos story opens up one of those places into a comprehensible landscapeand also opens up a part of New York that is designed to be invisible. How can a person deal with memories like Deos, tormenting memories, memories with a distinctly ungovernable quality? In the first part of Strength In What Remains, I recount Deos story. In the second part, I tell about going back with him to the stations of his life, in New York and Burundi. Deo is an American citizen. He doesnt have to go back to Burundi. But he has returned continually and keeps on returning, and, amid the postwar wreckage, with the help of friends and family, he has created a clinic and public health system, free to those who cant pay, in a rural village.
