Douglas Rogers is an award-winning journalist and travel writer. He was born and raised in Zimbabwe and now lives in Brooklyn, New York.
"This book is a smasher. The opening movements are possibly the
hottest non-fiction I have ever read. The fall of Robert Mugabe was
orchestrated from Johannesburg? Douglas Rogers has to be kidding.
But he isn't." Rian Malan
"Two Weeks in November is Ocean's 11 meets Game of
Thrones: a real-world life or death chess match for the future
of a country where the political endgame is never a foregone
conclusion." Justin Webb "Reads like a thriller... Comic and
terrifying... Rogers's poweful account is told with dark humour,
political understanding and narrative flair." The Times
(London)
"A gripping tale of the coup/not-a-coup that toppled Mugabe... incredible insight. I know far more now about what was going on behind the scenes while I was filming in Harare in 2017." - Lindsay Hilsum, International Editor, Channel 4 News
PRAISE FOR THE LAST RESORT:
"This vibrant, tragic and surprisingly funny book is the best
account yet of ordinary life - for blacks and whites - under
Mugabe's dictatorship." New York Times
"A gorgeous, open-hearted book. Rogers manages to do the vital work
of taking race out of Zimbabwe's story and putting the heart and
humanity back into it. A must read for anyone who really wants to
understand the extraordinary decency of ordinary Zimbabweans."
Alexandra Fuller, author of Don't Let's go to the Dogs
