Nor is there any higher. Twenty-five hundred metres, the white teachers proudly proclaim.\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Parents send their daughters to Our Lady of the Nile to be moulded into respectable citizens, and to protect them from the dangers of the outside world. The young ladies are expected to learn, eat, and live together, presided over by the colonial white nuns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is fifteen years prior to the 1994 Rwandan genocide and a quota permits only two Tutsi students for every twenty pupils. As Gloriosa, the school\u2019s Hutu queen bee, tries on her parents\u2019 preconceptions and prejudices, Veronica and Virginia, both Tutsis, are determined to find a place for themselves and their history. In the struggle for power and acceptance, the lyc\u00e9e is transformed into a microcosm of the country\u2019s mounting racial tensions and violence. During the interminable rainy season, everything slowly unfolds behind the school\u2019s closed doors: friendship, curiosity, fear, deceit, and persecution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Our Lady of the Nile<\/em> is a landmark novel about a country divided and a society hurtling towards horror. In gorgeous and devastating prose, Mukasonga captures the dreams, ambitions and prejudices of young women growing up as their country falls apart<em>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018Exquisitely measured . . .

This is a deeply moving exploration of human cruelties \u2013 and the stubborn hope that rests in each difficult moment. This is a book for our times.\u2019 \u2013 <strong>Maaza Mengiste, author of&nbsp;<em>The Shadow King<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018Scholastique Mukasonga has wrought pain, grief and anger into art. <em>Our Lady of the Nile<\/em> demands that we ask ourselves how and where violence begins, and offers a clear eyed view of a world falling apart.
