Synopsis
Biblical in its ambition, utterly grounded in its pitch perfect language and mordant wit Chris Wadman has rolled up his sleeves as a storyteller and explored universal themes through the trials and hopes of ordinary, modern day Zimbabweans. What is to lose one’s homeland, one’s security, one’s sense of historical justice while never, for a moment, losing one’s sense of self (however hard one tries)? This is a book of wonder and a atale of terrible warning, beautifully rendered, robustly lyrical (Alexandra Fuller).
