Story about love, determination and patience. Very educational as well.
EXCELLENT !!!! You could feel the situation through their story.I LOVE the way the author was reading his own book .He lived these experiences and I could feel his joy ,pain,sorrow and love.What a wonderful experience to enjoy this book.I will remember this always .Thank You Neely Tucker for the courage to write this book.Good For You.May God Bless you ALL.
Tucker is an eloquent author who brings this narrative to life. Not only does the reader learn to love Chipo and Vita and Tucker, but also gets an education about life in Africa. Highly recommended.
I can hardly imagine what the unabridged version is like....there is so much detail in the abridged version! This is a true story of reverse racism and the unbelievable inefficiency of government employees in a Third World country. Much of what takes place defies all reason...and this listener, at least, emerged once again beathing a prayer of relief for having been born an American.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The narrator was easy to listen to and the story was captivating.
Amazng true story. I loved this book. The author writes with the color and texture of the best southern writers.
This book is wonderful because you are rewarded with not one, but two great stories. The flow of the political events that moved through Zimbabwe during the late 1990's was very interesting and had a powerful effect on the major characters. This is, however, mostly a story about a love affair that the author and his wife had with a sick, emaciated Zimbabwe infant. As they attempted to adopt this baby they weaved in and out of an impotent social welfare system. Truth is still stranger than fiction and here is yet another example! I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Read it for the political content or the uplifting story of what love is can really do.
