We Wish to Inform You That Tomorrow We Will Be Killed with Our Families
This text is a first-hand account of a people's response to genocide and what it tells us about humanity. Gourevitch chronicles what has happened in Rwanda since 1994.
Standard Operating Procedure
Standard Operating Procedure is an utterly original collaboration by the writer Philip Gourevitch (We Wish to Inform You that Tomorrow We Will Be Killed With Our Families) and the film-maker Errol Morris (The Thin Blue Line, The Fog of War). They have produced the first full reckoning of what actually happened at Abu Ghraib. Standard Operating Procedure reveals the stories of the American soldiers who took and appeared in the haunting digital snapshots from Abu Ghraib prison that shocked the world – and simultaneously illuminates and alters forever our understanding of those images and the events they depict. Drawing on more than two hundred hours of Errol Morris’s startlingly frank and ...

A Cold Case
A tale of crime and punishment from a prizewinning writer. A few years ago, Andy Rosenzweig, an inspector for the Manhattan District Attorney's office, was abruptly reminded of an old, unsolved double homicide. It bothered him that Frankie Koehler, the notoriously dangerous suspect, had eluded capture and was still at large. Rosenzweig had known the victims of the crime, for they were childhood friends from the South Bronx: Richie Glennon, a Runyonesque ex-prizefighter at home with both cops and criminals, and Pete McGinn, a spirited restaurateur and father of four. Rosenzweig resolved to find the killer and close the case. In a surprising, intensely dramatic narrative, Philip Gourevitch bri...

Summary of Philip Gourevitch's We Wish to Inform You That Tomorrow We Will Be Killed with Our Families
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I went to Nyarubuye in Rwanda to see the church where many Tutsis were murdered in April of 1994. The bodies had not been moved, and they looked like pictures of the dead. I did not need to see them to know what happened in Rwanda. #2 The butchery of the cow was hard work, but the butchery of people is different. It must be done for a new order, and the people must want it so badly that they consider it a necessity. #3 I was able to see what I was seeing, and I took photographs to remember it. I was unable to find any meaning in the beauty of the dead bodies, and I was simply disturbed by the sight. #4 Rwanda is a beautiful country, but it was the site of a genocide in 1994. The country was empty except for some rural areas in the south, where the desertion of Hutus had left nothing but bush to reclaim the fields around crumbling adobe houses.
