Plot: What's the story about?
In 1996 when his father suffers a heart attack, Peter Godwin returns to Africa and discovers his father is Jewish and has hidden it from Peter and his siblings all their lives. As his father's health deteriorates, so does Zimbabwe. Mugabe, self-proclaimed president for life, institutes a series of ill-conceived land reforms that throw the white farmers off the land they've cultivated for generations and consequently throws the country's economy into free fall. There's sadness throughout—for the death of his father, for the suffering of everyone in Zimbabwe (black and white alike) and for the way that human beings invariably treat each other with casual disregard.
