This is a truly visceral and brutal look at the period of greatest African decolonisation in the early 60s. There is death and destruction. At the time it was taken as a warning of a bleak future for these benighted countries and was certainly taken to heart in white South Africa. Unfortunately its warnings were incredibly prescient as the continents succumbed to the basket case we see today.
If there is any criticism it is the way its chapters jump about with no sense of clear continuity as if it is edited together randomly.
We were warned. It happened. And now the people are poorer and more abused than before.
The real heart of darkness.
