The blurb on the back cover describes 'Harvest of Thorns' as a novel "of great significance which will give all those who read it a greater understanding of the road along which Zimbabwe has travelled, as well as indicate many of the directions ahead." All too true. And sadly one can add: are currently going through.

I agree with the previous readers - this is a well written and told story that is really sad. Colonialism has been devastating for lots of countries in Africa, not least for Zimbabwe.

I'll se if I can make a ray, this book must be read by more people.
