Set in central Angola during the final stages of the countrys thirtyyear civil war, No One Can Stop the Rain is the true story of two ordinary Mdecins Sans Frontires volunteers a surgeon and his wife, leaving behind their comfortable lives in midcareer. In doing so they are confronted by both the best and worst aspects of humanity. Based on correspondence and diary entries, the book chronicles the couples journey to Kuito, deep in the heart of Angola. The remnants of this provincial capital had the unenviable reputation of being one of the worlds most heavily landmined cities. The events witnessed by Moorhouse and Cheng as they worked alongside civilians victims of landmines, the malnourished, and the displaced provide a unique insight into life in this vast humanitarian citadel. Through the couples eyes, the reader not only experiences something of the expected, the trauma of war, but also gains a rich insight into the less expected, the ordinary life of both local residents and field volunteers.
