Miracle in Kigali: The Rwandan Genocide - a survivor's journey 2019 edition
Miracle in Kigali 2019 edition, marking the 25th anniversary of the Rwandan Genocide, tells the amazing story of Illuminà©e Nganemariya and her baby son Roger Nsengiyumva's survival in Kigali, the capital of Rwanda, during the 1994 Genocide and subsequent life in Norwich.
Miracle in Kigali was first published in 2007. This new edition updates Illuminà©e and Roger's story, including Roger's developing film and TV acting career. Roger was most recently seen on TV as Dadir Hassan in the 2018 BBC drama, Informer. He began his acting career when he was chosen in 2010 to play the role of Fabrice in the feature film, Africa United. The route to Roger's acting career began with Africa United's producer seeing an article about Miracle in Kigali, featuring a photograph of the young Roger.
How does it feel to wake up every morning for more than three months facing the prospect that you and your newborn baby are likely to be brutally murdered that day? This was Illuminà©e's experience as she existed for 100 days in the living hell of Kigali after watching her husband be dragged away to be killed by friends who had celebrated their wedding with them a month earlier. Eventually rescued by soldiers from the Rwandan Patriotic Front on Mount Kigali, Illuminà©e and Roger moved to the UK in September 1996 to build a new life in Norwich, UK.
'Miracle in Kigali is an extraordinary document - a unique, tragic, insiders guide to Genocide. This is a book about what a mother will endure to keep her child alive. I read it and wanted to give Illuminà©e a big hug. She's my hero.' Nick Andrews, BBC.
Nick Andrews was the Director of a BBC3 TV documentary, Roger:Genocide Baby (2011), featuring the teenage Roger returning to Rwanda and exploring how his home country had moved on from the Genocide.
