His father Kim, a native of Rhodes Island, was sent to South Africa as a young man to escape the Nazi invasions during World War 2. Kim eventually made his way north to Rhodesia where he settled. In 1953, he met Arte Hadjiloizou, a woman from Cyprus, who he later married and together they had two sons, Nisso and Leon.
Nisso has been married twice and has a son from each marriage, Kim and Michael who reside in South Africa.
On leaving Zimbabwe, Nisso went on to seek work in South Africa to be closer to his sons but with nothing available to him there, he ventured further afield to find work which took him to Nigeria, Cyprus, Ireland and finally the UK where he currently resides.
Nisso, whilst professionally managing hotels, started his writing of this book which continued into the Covid lockdowns. The original writings were all greatly reduced as it was a more detailed account of the atrocities experienced and witnessed over the years in Zimbabwe. It is hoped that these would be expressed further in any visualisation that is made of this storyview less
