The Rift – A New Africa Breaks Free –

“Alex Perry travelled Africa for most of a decade, meeting entrepreneurs and warlords, aid workers and drug smugglers, presidents and jihadis. From these remarkable encounters, Africa emerges as a continent at a pivotal moment in its history, throwing off centuries of subjugation and reclaiming its freedom from the world.

Intimately reported and passionately argued, The Rift tells a lyrical, provocative story of how the world gets Africa wrong – and how Africans are now setting it right.'”
