A vivid account of a Congolese city as told through the
everyday experiences of its people.
A city of over one million people, caught between volcanic eruptions
and armed conflict, Goma has come to embody the ‘tragedy' that is
the Democratic Republic of Congo. Often portrayed by outsiders as a
living hell, Goma is nevertheless a city of opportunity for others.
Drawing on a rich tapestry of personal narratives, from taxi driver to
market trader, doctor to local humanitarian worker, Goma: Stories o_f
Strength and Sorrow from Eastern Congo provides an engaging and
unconventional portrait of an African city.
In contrast to the bleak pessimism which dominates much of the writing on
Congo, Trefon and Kabuyaya emphasise the resilience, pragmatism and
ingenuity which characterises so much of daily life in Goma.
Resigned and hardened by struggle, the protagonists of this book give
the impression that life is neither beautiful nor ugly, but an unending
skirmish with destiny. In doing so, they offer startling insights into the
social, cultural and political landscape of this unique city.
‘Trefon and Kabuyayas protagonists negotiate militiamen, lava flows and
cholera outbreaks with humour, determination and remarkable grace/
Michela Wrong, author of In the Footsteps of Mr Kurtz
A masterpiece. Zed Books are to be congratulated for making this outstanding
book available to English language readers/
Georges Nfzongola-Nftalaja, author of The Congo from Leopold to Kabila
‘One can only respect these life stories, which resonate like gunfire and silent
screams with Congolese readers. They come closer to revealing the true state of
the DRC than most theoretical accounts.
Patience Kabamba, author of From Charity to Parity
