Having produced extraordinary works by the likes of Peter Godwin (Mukiwa), Alexandra Fuller (Scribbling the Cat) and Nobel laureate Doris Lessing, Zimbabwe's troubles seem to prove that you need to suffer for your art. But those authors are white, and Zimbabwe is a country of millions of blacks, whose troubles have undoubtedly been worse. So do we really need another memoir by a white Zimbabwean...

To find out which one, you must go to a site like Amazon.com, find the item...
...with a distinct "industrial accent." Today, producers like Cobra - sales of its nonalcoholic brand Cobra Zero rose 21% in the U.K. in the year to March - lightly ferment their beer mix, creating only a tiny amount of alcohol. "Beers brewed this way tend to be sweeter and a little fuller-bodied," says Evans, "because nothing has been stripped...
