When Flowers Grow Again

Set in Zambia in the 1990s, When Flowers Grow Again is about Thomas Mutambo, a vibrant entrepreneur whose father was murdered by a brutal regime twenty years earlier. Thomas is now pondering a career in politics, but he fears for his life, what with extrajudicial killings still going on. He also feels pressured to make his wife, Nomai, pregnant. At the same time, he is wickedly drawn to the innocently alluring beauty of his manservant’s daughter, Selafi, who is also his personal assistant. Amidst this, he is deeply troubled as to why his wife suddenly hires a new and younger manservant, Jonathan.
