Throwing Stones At The Moon: Narratives From Colombians Displaced By Violence

That it is normal for a family, like Zullybeth Zapata's, to stay up all night hiding in terror (p. 161). That it is normal for a child, like Kelly Torres, to request a house of iron, 'all closed up so that bullets couldn't come in and kill us' (p. 61).
