I'm not sure why the reviews I read all painted this as a bleak depressing book, maybe I just picked poorly. The main theme was about the hope that CARE helps foster in a country that has been through more hardship than most of us in a "first world" country could ever hope to relate to. Based on the little bit here I will be trying some of his other books too, assuming I can get them from the library.
