Pulitzer Prize winning journalist Tracy Kidder's latest book, Strength in What Remains, is the story of a young medical student named Deogratias (!) who narrowly survives civil war and genocide in Burundi before arriving in New York City with no English and $200 in his pocket. Two years later he's enrolled in Columbia University. The storyline might be a bit clichéd, but what's really illuminating is the way Deo manages his post-traumatic stress syndrome.
