The Night Wanderers: Uganda's Children and the Lord's Resistance Army

Focusing on the harrowing experiences of children fleeing the Lord's Resistance Army in northern Uganda, Wojciech Jagielski provides a profound narrative of survival and resilience. He captures the anguish of abducted children forced to commit atrocities, and the lingering trauma they face even after escaping. Through vivid storytelling, Jagielski presents a compassionate portrayal of a society struggling to heal from the scars of conflict, drawing parallels to the legacy of Ryszard Kapuściński. The original Polish edition has been shortlisted for the esteemed Nike Prize.
