A story of pain and disaster that nonetheless remains warm, hopeful and human
A beautiful book. The humanity shines through. Inspiring. Highly recommended. Honest and does not shy away from the graphic truth of disasters.

Incredible
A fascinating insight into post-disaster response. I also loved the narration. I hope the author writes more books because this was brilliant.
