description: The civil war in Bougainville lasted from 1990-2001. This is the story of the aftermath of the civil war. Using oral evidence it tells the story through the eyes of the people--the victims, the freedom fighters, the women who took a leading part in the peace process. The author provides some perspective on the threatened loss of culture and identity caused by the war and on the residue of trauma left by terrible violence and human rights atrocities.
