Stringer could be a good read for someone interested in journalism and seeking a unique perspective on the challenges faced by a foreign journalist in the Congo. Sundaram's writing is visceral and immersive, transporting the reader into the chaos of the 2006 elections. The most striking aspect of the book is the author's unflinching honesty in confronting his own naivete and privilege, a feature that has garnered praise from readers and reviewers alike.

"Stringer is an account of a year and a half that Sundaram spent in Congo. It was an intense period that would take him to the heart of Africa's great war, to the historic and violent multi-party elections of 2006. Written with startling beauty and acuity, Stringer is a superb piece of reportage."
