“If the observers think urging Odinga to “move on” will avoid a rerun of 2007, they are likely mistaken. The Bush White House’s rush to congratulate Odinga’s rival, Mwai Kibaki, after the rigged 2007 election helped fuel the violence that followed,” Ms Epstein maintained.
Helen Epstein is an American writer having worked on 10 books of literary nonfiction. They include the groundbreaking Children of the Holocaust, one of the first books to examine the intergenerational transmission of trauma; the biography Joe Papp: An American Life; and the memoir Where She Came From: A Daughter’s Search for Her Mother’s History.
All were named New York Times Notable Books of the Year. Her books are rigorously documented but in their blend of biography, autobiography and history, the private domain and the public record, they read like novels.
