A Swazi Boy | 
Malachy Purcell was born and raised in Swaziland, now #Eswatini, and details his early life in this memoir. His father was part of the British colonial government, so he grew up wealthy and privileged. His early years are interesting, but once he gets to the teen years, it‘s mostly boozing and riding along on his privilege. 😝 I give it a so-so. (This one isn‘t in the database, so the tag is another of his.)

Librarybelle At least parts of this were interesting - I think I would struggle with the privilege aspect as well 1y
