The Farm on Their Land

For decades the land question remained a topical issue in Zimbabwe. Two decades after independence in 1980, discontent was now constantly and increasingly expressed against the Government by the rural population and war veterans who were demanding the fulfillment of the promises made during the liberation war of taking the land from the mainly white commercial farmers and returning it back to the black majority. Inevitably, contradictions in the Zimbabwean society were coming to a head. Then at the turn of the twenty first century, came the Jambanja era, heralding a landmark in Zimbabwes struggle to redistribute the land. The white farmer had to be replaced by the native black farmer and inevitably some violent skirmishes became part of the Jambanja. The British Crown and its Western allies were up in arms against the Government of Zimbabwe and sanctions were visited upon the country. Who was to blame? As long as the white minority remained on the land, was justice being served? Were the land reform proponents able to confound all predictions and accomplish what was deemed impossible? Were the consequences worth the trouble? In the final analysis, when you discard the politics and separate the facts from the propaganda you will find Zimbabwe a traumatized nation.

The Trail of a Promiscuous Spouse

By: Emmanuel Chinyamakobvu

In fact Samantha was convinced that her husband Tito, as she preferred calling him was having an affair with the pretty housemaid Wanting to set a trap for her husband, Samantha did not inform Tito when he returned home from work that evening that the maid was away for the weekend. As soon as Tito closed the bathroom door, Samantha promptly dashed along the corridor, out at the back, went round the house, on to the verandah and into the maids bedroom. She just had the time to switch the lights off when the door quietly opened and closed again. Momentarily he had taken off all her under wears and got on top of her.. When he had finished and still panting, Samantha said You didnt expect to find me in this bed, did you? and switched on the light. No indeed, Madam, I didnt, said in a very low voice the young man who lodged next door. That was the condemned night when the illicit affair between Samantha and Toby had begun many years ago and it had continued unabated since then and remained under the lid undiscovered until that fateful day when Marjorie was taken to hospital ill, in the middle of the night.

Thou Shall Not Be Caught!

By: Emmanuel Chinyamakobvu

A casual discussion after an unarranged meeting between three previously unacquainted people who offhandedly found themselves sharing their family problems turn out to be an important lead to deciphering events that happened several years earlier. Tongai realizes that to disentangle a case assigned to him, following the shooting of a Police Constable and a savage attack on two others, he has to scavenge through the rubles of the information shared through the very casual conversation he had with Titus and Nhau and he has to depend on them and their associates to get to the bottom of each clue. His findings lead him to what appeared to be a completely unrelated issue. It is when Tongai believes that he has unraveled the puzzle and is ready to nail the culprits that he suddenly realizes that Mufundisi Siyazvitema is more than just a man of the cloth for him.

Evil on the Prowl

By: Emmanuel Chinyamakobvu

In Evil on the Prowl, a divorced former schoolteacher becomes a well-respected church leader. The causes of her divorce as Tito and Tongai were informed one afternoon is because, according to Nhau her ex-husband, she is an unscrupulous character, a woman of questionable ethics. All she thinks of is making money by whatever means possible, however dubious. Meanwhile, for weeks on end, the city of Marondera is gripped by a crime wave as groups of criminals operate with impunity - robbing, abducting, raping, and printing and circulating counterfeit money. Ordinary people disappear without trace. Men taken from the streets are drugged with numbing regularity then transformed into sex machines and subjected to violent sex escapades without them knowing it is happening. A team of police detectives follow a number of leads in the days and weeks to come, but none of them yield what each has promised at the beginning. The police is increasingly frustrated by its apparent failure to get rid of the criminals as crime in the city is on the increase. Then, Wanzai and her son are murdered in cold blood, and a suspected thief, is caught at the funeral wake of the deceased in the middle of the night. Intelligence received from the suspect reveals that a religious shrine in a village in Domboshava is a centre for dubious activities other than being solely a place for warship. At the centre of it all is one woman, Her Anointed One.

The Audacity of Breaking Free!

By: Emmanuel Chinyamakobvu

The Audacity of Breaking Free! The Audacity of Breaking Free is a recollection of the time I spent in the war fighting for the liberation and independence of Zimbabwe and the following events long after that war. I have tried to be as realistic, honest and true to the events as they happened according to my recollection more than three decades later. I did not have any notes written during the war or after, as a consequence, my minds eye is likely to see things differently from others who went through the same war or similar experiences of that war. I have used many quotes attributing them to certain individuals, but again all these quotes are from my memory and therefore may be remembered differently from others recollection. Experiences in the war were mentally troubling for me and many others who were directly and indirectly involved in it. The rural population had no better fate as they were often caught in the cross fire or assaulted for lending support to the war. Long after the war the day to day life did not seem to mean anything anymore for war veterans like me. www.pombodo.com

The Sting in the Twisted Tale

By: Emmanuel Chinyamakobvu

The Sting in the Twisted Tale is a collection of short stories. A number of the short stories are adapted from several of the authors published books, while a few others are extracts from the many works the author is working on and are yet to be published. In the short stories, the author creates scenes that visually jump to life and keep the reader in tension. The stories are a combination of rousing, dramatic, and at times comical look at the web of complications that arise from day to day life while others depict the brutal realities of war, crime, promiscuity, adultery and lies. As the events of each story begin to intermingle, the episodic discoveries and conflicts only become more interesting and compelling. The twists and turns in the stories keep building on top of complex and driven characters, and the stories crescendo extraordinarily to an unexpected and dramatic end. The characters in some of the stories exhibit unique and memorable qualities of both courage and determination while those in others, after all of their poor choices and moral challenges, the readers still empathizes with them.
