conversations.value: Beasts of No Nation: The novel is about a West African boy named Agu who is forced to become a child soldier.\nWhen war came to his family\'s small village, Agu\'s mother and sister are able to leave with the UN peacekeepers, but Agu is ordered to stay behind and fight with his father and the other men of the village.\nWhen soldiers attack the village the men realize that whether they hide or not they will eventually be killed.\nThey mount an attack but Agu runs away at his father\'s wishes.\nAgu hides and is soon found by soldiers, who coerce him to join their rebel force.\nIn a bloody initiation, the commander forces him to kill an unarmed man.\nAs Agu is forced to leave his childhood behind, he reminisces about the past: his family, his love of reading and school, his dream of becoming an important doctor, and how he used to read the Bible every day.\nHe thinks about how he and his friend used to play at war and how this war is not the same.\nHe fears that God hates him for killing others, but he soon forces himself to believe that this is what God wants, because "he is soldier and this is what soldiers do in war.\n" He befriends a mute boy named Strika, and together they face the crimes and hardships of war: looting, rape, killing, and starvation.\nAgu loses track of time, understanding only that he was a child before that war but has become a man in a seemingly never-ending trial by fire.\nHe wants to stop killing but fears that so doing will get him killed by the Commandant.\nDuring this time of war Agu and the army have very little to eat, so they eat what they can: rats, small game, goats, and sometimes other people.\nThe food is not cooked enough for fear that others will see the fire, and the water is known to contain human feces.\nAgu and other children in the battalion are raped by the Commandant in return for small tokens.\nWhile Agu hates the rape he does not resist as he fears he will be killed by the Commandant if he does so.\nThe Commandant eventually takes the battalion to the village of his birth where they visit a brothel.\nCommandant\'s second in command, Luftenant, is stabbed by a prostitute while he is choking and beating her and is replaced by a soldier named Rambo, thus named because of his blood thirst.\nHis wish to escape the army finally comes true when Rambo leads a successful revolt against the Commandant in a period of agonising lack of basic necessities.\nStarved, exhausted and bereaved of his only friend, Strika, Agu joins the disbanded soldiers to try to make their way home.\nAgu ultimately leaves his fellow soldiers.\nIn time, he comes under the care of a missionary shelter/hospital run by a preacher and a white woman, Amy.\nAgu gets new clothes and all the food and sleep he wants and regains his health and strength.\nHowever, after having lived through a bloody guerrilla war, the Bible no longer holds any meaning for him.\nAmy invites him to share his thoughts and feelings, and Agu tells her he would like to be a doctor and save lives so as to redeem his sins.\nHe also tells her about all of the evils he has had to commit during the war.

conversations.value: Beasts of No Nation (film): A civil war is breaking out in an unspecified West African country.\nA young boy, Agu, lives in a small village with his parents, older brother, and two younger siblings.\nAgu\'s village is in a "buffer zone" enforced by ECOMOG troops.\nAgu\'s father is a local leader, and aids refugees from the surrounding areas by letting them stay on his land.\nThe village is informed that the government has fallen, with military-aligned rebels seizing control of the country.\nWith rebel forces headed towards the village, many people flee to the country\'s capital for safety.\nAgu\'s father is able to buy safe transport for his wife and youngest child, but has to stay behind himself with Agu and his eldest son.\nRebel and government forces fight in and around Agu\'s village, the rebel soldiers flee and the government forces round up the remaining villagers thinking they are rebels.\nAs they are about to be executed, Agu\'s father tells his sons to run, just before being shot.\nThe two boys try to escape, but Agu\'s brother is killed.\nAgu evades capture and escapes into the jungle.\nAfter wandering for an unspecified amount of time, he is caught up in a guerrilla skirmish.\nThe NDF, a rising rebel faction in the country, adopts Agu into their ranks.\nAgu\'s battalion is led by the Commandant, who takes Agu under his wing.\nAfter undergoing a brutal initiation process, Agu becomes a fully-fledged member of the militia.\nAgu befriends another young NDF child soldier, Strika, who never speaks.\nOne night, the Commandant summons Agu to his quarters, and rapes him.\nStrika, another of the Commandant\'s rape victims, comforts him.\nPreacher, an older soldier, gives Agu brown-brown to lift his mood.\nAgu and Strika take part in a number of bloody battles and ambushes.\nThe battalion\'s success in the taking of several towns, killing hundreds of men, women and children, gains them a summons to the rebel HQ, where the Commandant, accompanied by Agu, Strika, and a few other members of the battalion, go to meet with the NDF leader.\nThey spend an entire night in the waiting area, infuriating the Commandant.\nWhen they finally meet the Supreme Commander, he informs the Commandant that he is not being promoted, as he had expected, and is in fact being removed from command.\nThe Commandant\'s lieutenant will take control of the battalion, and the Commandant will be given a staff position under the rebel leader.\nThe Commandant views this as an insult, and leaves to "celebrate" his lieutenant\'s promotion at a brothel.\nWhile the soldiers (except for Agu and Strika) spend the night with the brothel\'s women, one of the women shoots the lieutenant.\nThe lieutenant is badly wounded and the Commandant accuses the prostitute of trying to kill the Lieutenant.\nThe prostitute pleads with the Commandant and says she shot the lieutenant by accident, but the Commandant and his men shoot the women and leave the city with the battalion.\nNow on the run from their own faction, as well as the UN and government forces, the battalion suffers heavy losses.\nAirstrikes and supply shortages kill many of them, with Strika being killed by a gunshot during an ambush.\nThe remaining members of the battalion take shelter at a gold mine for several months, hoping to find gold to pay for supplies.\nAmmunition runs out, leaving the group with no way to defend themselves from encroaching enemy forces.\nAgu informs the Commandant of this, and he tells Agu that he must take care of him, as all sons must protect their fathers.\nAs they speak, Preacher, now the new lieutenant, rallies the soldiers to abandon their posts and surrender to the UN, as they will surely starve or be killed if they stay.\nThe Commandant at first refuses to let them go, but relents when Agu says they should surrender.\nThe soldiers all depart, leaving the raving Commandant alone.\nShortly after, they are detained by UN troops.\nThe younger members of the battalion are sent to a missionary school in a safe part of the country.\nAgu stays away from the other children, who play games and enjoy the comfort and safety of the school.\nAgu is tormented by what has happened, and has nightmares about it.\nAfter much time has passed, Agu tells the school\'s counselor that he has done some terrible things but he won\'t go into detail.\nHe is afraid the counselor will think he is some kind of "beast".\nInstead he tells how he used to be a good boy, from a good family, and that his family had loved him.\nThe final scene shows Agu finally joining the other boys as they swim and play in the ocean.

  It is starting like this. I am feeling itch like insect is crawling on my skin, and then my head is just starting to tingle right between my eye, and then I am wanting to sneeze because my nose is itching, and then air is just blowing into my ear and I am hearing so many thing: the clicking of insect, the sound of truck grumbling like one kind of animal, and then the sound of somebody shouting, TAKE YOUR POSITION RIGHT NOW! QUICK! QUICK QUICK! MOVE WITH SPEED! MOVE FAST OH! in voice that is just touching my body like knife.
  I am opening my eye and there is light all around me coming into the dark through hole in the roof, crossing like net above my body. Then I am feeling my body crunched up like one small mouse in the corner when the light is coming on. The smell of rainwater and sweat is coming into my nose and I am feeling my shirt is so wet it is almost like another skin. I want to be moving, but my whole bone is paining me and my muscle is paining me like fire ant is just biting me all over my body. If I can be slapping myself to be making it go away I am doing it, but I cannot even move one finger. I am not doing anything.
  Footstep is everywhere around me and making me to think that my father is coming to bring medicine to stop all of this itch and pain. I turn onto my back. The footstep is growing louder, louder, louder until I am hearing it even more than my own breathing or heart beating. Step slap, step slap, step slap, I am hearing getting louder, louder, louder and then shadow is coming into the light from under the door.
  Somebody is knocking. KNOCK KNOCK. But I am not answering. Then they are angrying too much and just kicking so the whole of this place is shaking and the roof is falling apart small small so that more light is coming in. And the wood everywhere is cracking until I am hearing PING PING and seeing screw falling from the door into bucket near my feets. The sound is fighting the wall, bouncing from here to there, through the net of light, until it is like the sound is pushing the door open so there is so much brightness. BRIGHTNESS! So much brightness is coming into my eye until I am seeing purple spot for long time. Then I am seeing yellow eye belonging to one short dark body with one big belly and leg thin like spider's own. This body is so thin that his short is just blowing around his leg like woman's skirt and his shirt is looking like dress the way it is hanging from his shoulder. His neck is just struggling too much to hold up his big head that is always moving one way or the other.
  I am looking at him. He is looking at me. He is not surprising at all to be seeing me even if I am surprising for him, but his face is falling and becoming more dark. He is sniffing like dog and stepping to me. KPAWA! He is hitting me.

conversations.value: Then because I was still feeling angry in my head, and because the cook is acting like madman, I was thinking to be going home. And as I am walking on the road that is going to my home, I am seeing only the feets of all the other people who were living in or had come back to the village because my anger was weighing my head forward. So because of this I am not greeting the older people as I should be doing, but nobody was saying anything to me because they were all having their own worry and I was just going on my way until the old woman who is always sitting on her chair selling groundnut that nobody is buying because person are fearing that she is some sort of witch was saying, you are not wanting to greet me? These young person not behaving well anymore, just acting like animal. But it is okay. Trouble go follow you.
  And I am remembering that woman even now because I am thinking what she is saying is why my life is so bad.

conversations.value: When I am saying all of this, she is just looking at me and I am seeing water in her eye. So I am saying to her, if I am telling this to you it will be making you to think that I am some sort of beast or devil. Amy is never saying anything when I am saying this, but the water is just shining in her eye. And I am saying to her, fine. I am all of this thing. I am all of this thing, but I am also having mother once, and she is loving me.
  Je parvins à faire s'évanouir dans mon esprit toute l'espérance humaine. Sur toute joie, pour l'étrangler, j'ai fait le bond sourd de la bête féroce.
  I was able to expel from my mind all human hope. On every form of joy, in order to strangle it, I pounced stealthily like a wild animal.
