Summary

Where We Have Hope is the extraordinary memoir of a young American journalist who arrived in a Zimbabwe flush with new independence, only to be illegally expelled twenty years later as an enemy of the state. It is a compelling tale of a man's coming-of-age and a nation's evolution-and a passionate plea for change in a country suffering under despotism.
