Wounded Nation: How a Once Promising Eritrea Was Betrayed and Its Future Compromised

by H. Selassie Bereket

Volume two in Bereket Habte Selassie's memoir continues where The Crown and the Pen (Africa World Press - also available from Turnaround) left off. Through historical and political analyses, Selassie lays bare the hidden - and not so hidden - elements that led to Eritrea's descent from a stellar model of democracy to a tragic abyss of dictatorship and isolation. Combined with the first volume, Wounded Nation is a must-read for anyone interested in the history and politics of Eritrea and the Horn of Africa.
