  • "When Alexandra 'Bo' Fuller was in Zambia visiting her parents, she asked her father about a nearby banana farmer who was known for being tough. Her father's response was a warning to steer clear of him: "Curiosity scribbled the cat," he told Bo. Nontheless, Fuller began her strange friendship with the man she calls K, a white African and veteran of the Rhodesian War. With the same fiercely beautiful prose that won her such acclaim for Don't Let's Go to the Dogs Tonight, Fuller here recounts her friendship with K. He is seemingly a man of contradictions. Tattoed, battle-scarred, and weathered by farm work, K is a lion of a man; feral and bullet-proof. Yet he is also a born-again Christian, given to weeping when he recollects his failed romantic life and welling up inside with memories of battle..."
  • "The man known as K is a banana farmer and born-again Christian. He is also touched by a deep sadness and haunted by the bloodshed of his past. Fuller and K journey back through Africa's war-torn history, visiting the scenes of unthinkable violence and meeting other war veterans with terrible stories to tell."@en
