Zanzibar Uhuru
revolution, two women and the challenge of survival
Anne M Chappel
Zanzibar Uhuru takes readers back to 1964, during the month after Zanzibar's independence celebrations. An uprising led by shadowy figure, John Okello, sweeps through the islands. Fatima, a twelve-year-old girl, faces unimaginable violence that changes her life forever. Mark Hamilton, a British official, struggles to protect his family while helping the Sultan's government. The lives of Fatima and Elizabeth, Mark's daughter, intersect in a tragic way on the day of the Revolution. Their journeys are different, but they are connected by an act of desperation.

Finished reading this book. Unputdownable piece of literature. We simply don't know a lot about our country. – source
