Diaspora Dreams, a debut novella by Andrew Chatora, offers a refreshing and relevant voice on the immigrant experience. In a masterclass tour de force journey, the Zimbabwean-born author takes us through the challenges that arise from settling in different countries without any pre-existing social capital or other sources of support. Diaspora Dreams lays bare the harsh economic realities and subtle racial barriers faced by recent migrants. The demands of family, the disintegration of families, and mental health issues are prominent features of these experiences, and Chatora paints these lived experiences brilliantly, showcasing his sublime skills as the consummate wordsmith.
