Long shot - does anyone have a copy of "Mukiwa: A White Boy in Africa" by Peter Godwin that I could borrow????

I started reading it while staying in a B&B down near Bristol just before Christmas.......only had 2 nights to read it - and still had about 120 pages to go when we had to leave .....and I want to finish it, but not sure I want to actually buy it........

oh you cheapskate you .
You could order it from the library?

TheIceQueen · 01/01/2008 22:12

our local library completely useless - lets just say I'm extremely glad of our own extremely large collection of children's books, and the excellent school library both at DS1's current school and the one he'll attend from September as it means I don't have to go in there......

And yes I know I'm a cheapskate.....but I don't want to spend money buying a book that in all honestly, despite how enthralling I found it (I've not read that avidly since before I had DS1 - who's 7!), I would probably never pick up off the shelf again.....

Well you know me, if there's a book on Africa, especially Zim or Zam I've probably got it!

If you enjoyed Mukiwa so much you should read 'When a crocodile eats the sun' - the companion piece - a profound read!

Just want to say thank-you to KateF - book arrived in the post today - and I shall enjoy reading the rest of it - shall return it at the end of the month when I have enough money for postage
