Synopsis

Behind Enemy Lines is a collection of stories about ordinary people and anti-heroes dragged into a search for meaning in their lives – whether it is a simple search for identity and love, or a bigger struggle for Africa's political freedom. The canvas of their actions, motivations and circumstances is a Zimbabwe of the past, present and future. Humorous, acerbic, funny and tragic, the stories cover the whole gamut of emotions.

Review

When I met Joe, too many years ago, all he did was drink, smoke and talk. Now I know why. There was a writer in there somewhere. All he needed was some life to write about. He has lived a juicy chunk of that life and written with the authority of one who has lived almost too well. Long may he yet live. And write. - Telford Vice
