Title: An accurate memoir of history?! You crazy?
Review: An accurate memoir of the history of Zimbabwe just wouldn't sell; there'd be no market for it. Yes, the writer may well have done his best, but within certain marketing parametres. Anyway, I don't feel like going back to the book for another pass so's to write a more detailed analysis. Suffice to say that, while it may not have been candy-coated, it necessarily had to have a fair few lashings of sweet stuff to make it palatable to ... well, for a start to the tens of thousands of former Rhodesians who'd want this book featuring on their bookshelves, along with "Flame Things of Thika" ... To those who disagree, go forth and enjoy your fairy tale world. Because I sure wish I had one too.
