An African Village-Boy in Aotearoa New Zealand | Bücher.de

Dr Kudakwashe Nomore Tuwe presents his true-life story, An African Village-Boy in Aotearoa New Zealand. Reflecting on his childhood in his village in rural Zimbabwe, he takes the reader on an exciting journey that ushers you into the realities of life without electricity, tap-water and flush-toilets. Tuwe's childhood coincided with the Zimbabwe war of liberation. This influenced him to attempt to cross into neighbouring Mozambique to train as a Freedom Fighter in order to liberate his country from the shackles of repressive colonialism. His story is one of insurmountable odds stacked against him, but ultimately, he triumphs over his circumstances, told with the simplicity and clarity of a village-boy. He also narrates his employment challenges and struggles in New Zealand. Biblical teachings from his mother based on social justice and compassion modelled Tuwe's childhood and influenced him to be a community advocate and to engage in charity work. This story spans half a world, starting in pre-colonial Zimbabwe to the land of the Kiwi where he currently lives with his wife, two grown-up children and a grandson. He is the 6th child (twin) of his father's first wife, in a family of 23 siblings born to five different mothers.
