Tears Run Dry: A Story of Courage in the face of Poverty, Tribalism and Racism

WHAT PEOPLE SAY
This is a beautifully written book about human resilience and belief in self development. It is a story about love for family. It is a story for and lived by many children in third world countries. The question is how many actually live to tell the tale? Patrick's story describes the impossible in calm, unforgettable literature; his memoir is an important testament to the children elsewhere who have to fend for themselves and a lesson for all of us to open our eyes and hearts to join them in their fight to have the basics of life.
From the first page of this book to the last one is a wonderfully sewn tale of adventure in the midst of all of this young man's trials. I enjoyed it!
This is such a great read! I would love to see it made into a movie!!
This book is fascinating, providing not only a compelling story of overcoming personal obstacles but also providing valuable insight into the real experience of refugee families (in this case, a Tutsi family in Uganda). The story motivated me to learn more about the history of Rwanda and Uganda; from the days of Belgian(!) colonialism in Rwanda through Idi Amin in Uganda and right up to the present in both countries, there is a lot of history to wrap context around Mr. Kalenzi's personal story.
Patrick Kalenzi,s story is one of courage and perseverance. He had so many obstacles in his life but overcame them all. This book amazed me. His family was very supportive of him and they helped him in every way they could. He had an overwhelming desire to succeed along with a great intelligence. He never gave up. This book is an inspiration and I highly recommend it. Congratulations on fulfilling your dreams Patrick. You are an inspiration. I loved the book.
WOW, I could not put this book down. I originally purchased the book as I know Patrick, but I had no idea how much I would enjoy this book. His ongoing courage and strength as well as his commitment to his dreams and family are so admirable. I would highly recommend this book!
