PRINTER FRIENDLY VERSION
A lurid, darkly humorous novel based on the last desperate days of the rule of Idi Amin in Uganda. The book is rich in detail of not only the lunacy of a failing despot, but also of life -- especially among the expatriates. Purported to be based on the diaries of Amin's personal physician. Convincing.
