Sono ormai quasi vent'anni che il Nord Uganda è sconvolto da una feroce guerriglia. Imboscate, saccheggi, rapimenti e orribili menomazioni turbano in continuazione la vita dei villaggi nella savana. In questo drammatico scenario, nel 1984 p. Alfonso Poppi, è nominato parroco di Palabek nel distretto di Kitgum. Lì incontra Santo, uno dei più attivi catechisti della parrocchia. Le lettere qui raccolte sono una testimonianza della profonda amicizia che d'allora in poi legherà Santo al missionario italiano. Autori: Santo Okot, Alfonso Poppi.
