Rezensionen

'Lamb is a careful observer, and her anguished refrain is the terrible schizophrenia of people who fiercely love their land but do nothing to save it...the strength is in the storytelling...it is a good piece of reportage...her book deserves to be read.' Daily Telegraph

'A perceptive account of Zimbabwean history since the colonial days.' Times Literary Supplement

'Riveting...Lamb's book tells a disaster story on a massive scale.' Daily Mail

'Compelling...Lamb has a remarkable pair of stories to tell, and does so extremely well.' The Spectator
