Reseña del libro "Where the Heart Is (en Inglés)"
"Where The Heart Is offers a nuanced view of one family's struggle to negotiate cold Britannia as they face dicey neighbourhoods, sketchy liaisons, and perennial ill-fate. Chatora's diaspora is not the glorified El Dorado; it is an honest place of grit and survival. A stellar contribution." - Tariro Ndoro, Author Agringada: Like a Gringa, Like a Foreigner For migrant Fari Mupawaenda, life cannot be complete without quitting the back breaking struggle for survival in the UK and returning to the laid-back streets of a warm Harare... but does it make sense for him to want to return to the periphery once more? The man who returns, why does he return? To what does he return? His wife, a zealous cosmopolitan, the daughter, a conflicted bed-hopping undergraduate, and the son, a budding homosexual, will not follow Fari in his trip to what they see as the back of beyond. They have decided to invest fully where they are.Fari's reverse trip is a story about the human body, a tight memory test and a duel between geography and anticipation...
