A review by andrewspink
Land of My Fathers by Vamba Sherif
4.0
When I started reading this book I thought it was going to be a rather preachy book about the iniquities of slavery and prepared myself to struggle through it. But I was soon proved wrong. The book is written in a very creative way spanning continents and generations and from an unusual perspective.
In a couple of weeks the author is giving a lecture here in Wageningen and I'm already looking forward to that...
Update; the 'lecture' was an informal group in a local café and very interesting. We heard about how the personal experiences of the author and his family had influenced the book and as a result had a much better understanding of it.
