‘Zimbabwe: Years of Hope and Despair’

Thursday 14th October -

A hugely successful and interesting afternoon with Philip Barclay reading from his book ‘Zimbabwe Years of Hope and Despair’

The following is from Philip

I was deeply impressed by – and grateful for – the interest of the audience and its engagement in our discussion. The organisation, publicity, venue and presence of such a community of people supporting Zimbabweans in the UK was wonderful…….  I really hope that everyone who is planning to read my book appreciates it. Needless to say I would be grateful for any feedback or comments from you or your colleagues.
Thank you once again. You are very kind.
Philip
