Pierre-Claver Ndacyayisenga was a history
teacher in Rwanda in
1994
when he was forced
to flee to the neighbouring Congo
(Zaïre)
with
his wife and three children. Thus began a har¬
rowing -five-year journey during which they and
more than three hundred thousand other refu¬
gees were pursued and bombed by shadowy
Rwandan-backed soldiers with sophisticated
weapons and aerial surveillance information.
Most did not live to tell their story. Dying To Live
is
Зкгл
ode to the human will to survive.
Pferre-Claver Ndacyayisenga was born in
Rwanda in
1962.
He has a history degree from
the
Université nationale du
Rwanda and taught
at the
Lycée de
Kigali until forced to flee in
19Э4.
Father of four children, he now lives in Montreal.
Phil Taylor hosts the Taylor Report at
CIUT,
Toronto. For ten years he was investigator
for human rights lawyers including former
US Attorney General Ramsey Clark: arid the late
Charles Roach.
Casey Roberts is an award-winning Montreal
translator.
