The author, born and bred in Zimbabwe but now living in New York, frequently visits his elderly parents still living there. He tells of the tragedy of Zimbabwe's steady downward spiral into anarchy and chaos in a very unbiased way. There is also a sub-plot revealing his father's past. I found it deeply moving and one of the best books I have read in years.
