This memoir shares the story of Duworkos abduction, the two-and-half torturous years he spent with the rebels, his escape to Guinea, and his immigration to Canada in 2005. He also describes how he founded three organizations to help youth recover from the trauma of war. He tells how he refuses to impose the weights of his past upon himself and instead seeks to empower others and make a difference.
To Live and to Tell serves not only to recall Duworkos experiences, but also to communicate the message that we should leave the past behind and live for today.
