TURBULENT YEARS

THERE COMES A TIME WHEN EACH ONE OF US HAS TO MAKE A DIFFICULT ,LIFE CHANGING DECISION

This is a story from Zimbabwe, set before and after the controversial land reform program.

It follows the life of a farm boy from the time he is young ,to when he becomes a man in a world where he has many unanswered questions about life.

Jonh has a colorful adventure packed, yet very disturbing ,sad, childhood.

Times have changed and the beloved farm he calls home has been changed forever,destroyed by those whose only job is to destroy things beautiful.
Will Jonh leave behind his beloved life and settle in a foreign land he has never been to ?

Will he leave behind the love of his life?
Will the love of his life have the courage to wait for him if he goes away? This is my first attempt at writing a novel,with the ideas drawn from my own life at a farm called Chinomwe, in Zimbabwe,the country I love very much.

This is a biography of sadness and joy,hope and hopelessness.It is the portrayal of that other side of Zimbabwe that you have never heard of,narrated in the first person by one who lived close to nature in Zimbabwe,past and present.
