Opis

'Look after your sister, Tinashe.' Tinashe is a young Shona boy living in a small village in rural Rhodesia. The guerilla war of the late 1960s haunts the bushlands, but it only infrequently affects his quiet life. When his younger sister, Hazvinei, is born, Tinashe knows at once that there is something special about her.

Recenzje

Eames conveys a strong sense of political turmoil enflamed by sinister witch doctors, brutal guerilla factions and superstitious misogyny...compelling. Alfred Hickling Guardian
