Review: Scholastique Mukasonga\u2019s \u201cCockroaches\u201d
\nby CHARLES R. LARSON<\/p>\n

Reading Cockroaches, it\u2019s easy to conclude that Kagame did what he believes he needed to do. In too many troubled spots in Africa, when racial tensions are put down, they simply go underground, waiting to raise their ugly heads again. As for Scholastique Mukasonga herself? She\u2019s a fabulous writer, the author of highly praised novels and her memoir, Cockroaches, published ten years ago in France. She\u2019s been the runner-up for major international literary awards. Her talented translator, Jordan Stump, needs to get started on translating her other works.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
