Histoire
From the author of The Power of One comes a new novel about Africa. The time is 1939. White South Africa is a deeply divided nation with many of the Afrikaner people fanatically opposed to the English. The world is also on the brink of war, and South Africa elects to fight for the Allied cause against Germany. Six-year-old Tom Fitzsaxby finds himself in The Boys Farm, an orphanage in a remote town in the high mountains, where the Afrikaners side fiercely with Hitler's Germany.

Tommy's story was too long and gruesome for me
The first 20 hours focused on the lives of the Malone family and if the story had ended there, I would have considered this the best audio book I'd listened to, to date. The story is well researched, quirky and the narration is brilliant. Unfortunately most of the last nine hours of the book focuses on Tommy's harrowing experience as a prisoner of war and no detail is spared. I found myself wishing it would end, but instead it transitioned to Mole's experience in Vietnam. This book contains too much war violence and torture for me.
