Book Reviews of The Last King of Scotland
Book Review: A quite extraordinary book
Summary: 5 Stars
The thing is that Foden has produced a work that could quite really have been a diary/ autobiography of the dictator's doctor. That takes some doing. The accidental contact with the Israeli secret service and British High Commission and his proximity to a few too many events may push the credibility a bit, but these and the levels of recuring denial make this as interesting as Flashman!
I understand that this is Foden's first book and look forward to reading more.
