Review of A Dream For Peace
Have you ever wondered about an ambassador's genuine thoughts, not some kind of political version of it? Or are you perhaps curious about Africa and would like to know more about its history of hope and pain? In the non-fiction book, A Dream For Peace, the author Dr. Ghoulem Berrah whisks the readers on a wild roller-coaster ride as he tells them the story of his life.
Before you can even finish this book, you are able to tell that Dr. Ghoulem Berrah is a man with multiple gifts. Born in the country Algeria, he is a doctor, scientist, political activist, and ambassador. Even one of them is hard for most people to achieve. But he is more than that. Berrah is a son, husband, peace seeker, visionary, and freedom fighter. He dedicated his entire life to spreading peace and harmony among countless people. He traveled to many countries, soaking up all the knowledge he could. Ghoulem Berrah worked together with President Houphouët-Boigny of Ivory Coast to steady the African continent fight against racism, colonization, and the various injustices that people tend to shy away from. Can he do it?
Before I started reading the book, I was a little discouraged by the high amount of page numbers, but I found myself flying through it in a short time. The author's straightforward and easy-to-read writing style never failed to capture my attention throughout the whole book. The twists and turns of the book kept me intrigued and wide awake even as the hand on the clock turned way past midnight. In addition, it is exceptionally edited since I was not able to find any grammar or spelling errors.
As for the negative aspects of the book, I often realized the author frequently dumped a bunch of information on the readers. While that is not an entirely bad thing, I wish he took the time to slow down the pace of the book and explain it in a way that anyone who reads it would remember it long after they are finished. But other than that, I have no issues with the story.
Overall, A Dream For Peace is an entertaining, one-of-a-kind book and deserves to be read by many people. I highly recommend it to people who want to learn more about history, especially if their interest includes Africa. In conclusion, I unreservedly give the rating 4 out of 4 stars.
