Nervous conditions

Trama

The semi-autobiographical novel focuses on the story of a Shona family in post-colonial Rhodesia during the 1960s. 'Nervous conditions' illustrates the dynamic themes of race, colonialism, and gender during the post-colonial conditions of present-day Zimbabwe. The title is taken from the introduction by Jean-Paul Sartre to Frantz Fanon's 'The wretched of the Earth' (1961).
