Books by David Lan

Woven through it all is his decades long relationship with playwright Nicholas Wright. At times hilarious and always deeply felt, David Lan's deft travels evoke a wildly varied life in theatre as well as a unique theatre of life.

Almost every anti-colonial struggle this century has been led by an army of guerrillas. In the struggle for Zimbabwe (1966-80), hundreds of thousands of peasants provided the guerrillas with practical help and support. But they went a good deal further. This book presents a detailed study of one key 'operational zone' in the Zambezi valley.
