In his first novel, The Winds That Blow Before the Rains, he tells the story of the violent political history of Rhodesia’s transition to Zimbabwe and the impact this has had on the lives of its people. Here was a white man’s dream passed down from father to son – a dream that became a nightmare after the Bush War of Zimbabwe.
