Description
Don’t Let’s Go to the Dogs Tonight by Alexandra Fuller is a compelling memoir about growing up on a farm in Rhodesia during the 1970s. Through the eyes of a child, Fuller recalls family life, the African landscape and the upheaval of the war years with honesty, humour and warmth.
The memoir offers a vivid account of an extraordinary childhood in Rhodesia, later Zimbabwe, and explores family, loss, conflict and the family’s deep connection with Africa. It was shortlisted for the Guardian First Book Award and won the Winifred Holtby Memorial Prize in 2002.
A particularly good choice for readers interested in African history, Rhodesia, Zimbabwe, memoirs and stories of growing up in Africa.
