Highly, highly recommend this book!
5 stars
I loved this book!
I loved this memoir and the way it was written. It was quick witted, well paced and filled with wonderful stories.
It is interesting to hear about the collapse of white rule in Rhodesia/ Zimbabwe as remembered by a child. There is an innocence about these recollections that I think would be missing from other accounts of these events.
I particularly enjoyed reading about how the author realized that almost everything she had believed in as a child was a lie. Particularly when she realized that the justification for the war that she had loved, was a lie. Her growing maturity and realization about the ingrained racism was truly touching as she work hard to change her views, values and attitudes.
I also enjoyed the touching stories of her family and their days on Rainbow's End. Some of these experience, for me growing up in suburbia, where truly mind boggling.
It was also heart wrenching hearing about the families that were murdered... Camilla's story was particularly heart breaking.
Highly, highly recommend this book!
