About this product
Product Information
Will I ever see my home again? I do not know. Will I ever see my father again? I do not know. Will life ever be the same again? I do not know. Katie and Tariro are worlds apart but their lives are linked by a terrible secret, gradually revealed in this compelling and dramatic story of two girls grappling with the complexities of adolescence, family and a painful colonial legacy. 14-year-old Tariro loves her ancestral home, the baobab tree she was born beneath, her loving family - and brave, handsome Nhamo. She couldn't be happier. But then the white settlers arrive, and everything changes - suddenly, violently, and tragically. Thirty-five years later, 14-year-old Katie loves her doting father, her exclusive boarding school, and her farm with its baobab tree in rural Zimbabwe. Life is great. Until disaster strikes, and the family are forced to leave everything and escape to cold, rainy London. Atmospheric, gripping and epic in scope, Far from Home brings the turbulent history of Zimbabwe to vivid, tangible life.Visit the special Far From Home website at www.far-from-home.com

Praise for From Somalia with Love: "Sensitive, sometimes painful . . . Warm, engaging, and intensely thought-provoking . . . It should be widely read." -- Carousel, This moving tale describes the violent history of Zimbabwe as seen through the eyes of two very different young girls., Praise for From Somalia with Love: "Sensitive, sometimes painful . . . Warm, engaging, and intensely thought-provoking . . . It should be widely read." — Carousel, Never gratuitous, and told with a delicate touch, Far From Home educates and moves in equal measure and I'd thoroughly recommend it as a moving insight into the struggles of Zimbabwe and its people.
