War spares no one and too often, it is those who are caught in the crossfire who suffer most. Zimbabwe's liberation war was protracted and bloody; many people died, and memories and living and recent. Stained Earth is a powerful and moving collection of short stories narrated by a policeman, Greg Stanyon. The stories fuse clarity of observation with a sense of the pity and pain of the conflict. They cast doubt on the necessity of war, and illustrate that coming to terms with, and recovering from war require a process of truth-telling from different perspectives. The anthology invites the reader to reflect, again, on this period, from a rarely represented point of view. Derek Huggins' previously published fiction appears in Writing Still. New Stories from Zimbabwe (Weaver Press, 2003).
