Coming soon: The Dark

Nick takes a breath as he tries to remember. Fragments of a forgotten journey flicker in front of his eyes. It is night, November 1978. He is four years old. He is holding his mother’s hand as they wait on the escarpment. They are leaving Kampala. Buying safe passage and silence with all they have, they travel by matatu and the conductor asks no questions. Tue 12 – Wed 13 Feb.
