Harare North, By Brian Chikwava Scams, scrapes and survival in a city of refugees

The reviews keep pouring in. I'm loving this. Margaret Busby enjoyed Brian Chikwava's Harare North. She urges us to "Come to this novel with an open mind and, as well as giving you much to ponder about the nature of right and wrong, exile and belonging, it will surely make you go kak kak kak."
I guess I can't wait to go kak kak kak.
So here you go.

N.B: I read Petina Gappah's response to Aminatta Forna's review of her book in her blog. An interesting conversation went on there. For those who would like to have a glimpse, see: Petinagappah.blogspot.com
