The Place Between Our Fears: Life In Congo And Beyond

When the author first moves to eastern Congo, she stumbles through a new language and culture, trying to construct a life for herself in a city built on the edge of disaster. In search of community, she becomes friends with Argentine and Mapendo, two young Congolese women who navigate their perilous lives on crutches with camaraderie, laughter, and faith. This story follows the three women's decade-long friendship, a relationship that spans continents, and leads to a world they never could have imagined. ??The Place Between Our Fears is at once a love song to Congo and a gripping account of war, poverty, and displacement. Ultimately it is an unforgettable story of hope and friendship and a call to community in the face of every fear.
