A Swamp the Size of Belgium

af John Vintar
A Swamp the Size of Belgium af John Vintar
Bag om A Swamp the Size of Belgium

South Sudan became independent in 2011, but the hope for a peaceful future was short-lived. By 2013, the world's youngest nation was engulfed in a brutal civil and tribal war. Deployed as a Military Liaison Officer as part of the United Nations Mission in South Sudan, John Vintar recounts the harsh realities of how the United Nations conducts peacekeeping operations in Africa. With stories that are descriptive, shocking, and at times poetic, Vintar illustrates humanity at its best and its worst, in a war waged with impunity. Experience the dangers, frustrations, and sense of isolation that come with serving in a UN mission, and the difficulty returning home to a country indifferent to the suffering in South Sudan.

With stories that are descriptive, shocking, and at times poetic, Vintar illustrates humanity at its best and its worst, in a war waged with impunity.
