This chapter conceptualises reconciliation and unreconciliation as two spaces. The chapter analyses Véronique Tadjo’s The Shadow of Imana together with the ICTR case Prosecutor v. Bagosora et al. and Téa Obreht’s The Tiger’s Wife alongside the ICTY case Prosecutor v. Milošević. The reflective narratives depict geographical proximity, trust and shared culture or history as supportive of the space of reconciliation. Fear and mistrust, physical distance and forced forgiveness maintain unreconciliation, and fear may be symptomatic of the absence of the rule of law. Addressing fear and reconciliation simultaneously could be beneficial and a means to break the cycles of attitudes and behaviours which, for example, allow the lack of trust to prevent communication needed for establishing trust. While reconciliation takes place among and between individuals and different size groups in diverse societal spheres and contexts, the chapter positions the dead as an overlooked stakeholder group.
