The Colours That Blind

Tragedy, hatred and atrocity are shown with unflinching directness, but Tavengerwei's second novel is also an eloquent plea for acceptance and reconciliation. -- Imogen Russell Williams * Guardian *
Tavengerwei flexes her storytelling muscles, weaving two tales from different times together, with pace, confidence and beautiful writing . . . Easy detail, authentic dialogue, nuance and humour . . . Tavengerwei draws characters that are conflicted, compassionate, but never obvious mouthpieces. I can't recommend it enough. * The Times *
This novel is about difference and accepting differences. And ultimately being able to forgive. It's the only way to release yourself from the grip of hatred. An important, and extremely difficult, lesson to learn . . . This book will hook many readers. Ones who like to be challenged by intense themes, immersed in another culture, and gripped by authentic storytelling. * Just Imagine *
Truly one of the best books I have read * ruruwrites.com *
An extraordinary achievement . . . Tavengerwei's story teaches us that learning about the past and recent past is the best way to broaden our own minds. Recent history has valuable lessons about the point at which anger simply becomes hate - and how hate is all-encompassing and easy to manipulate. An extraordinary feat and a real page-turner. Rutendo Tavengerwei's intelligence and empathy shines on every page. * Book Murmuration *
