The Zimbabwe Network warmly congratulates its honorary member Ruth Weiss!

“Ruth has been working with  Zimbabwe Network eV for many years and gives us rich gifts – with her current, knowledgeable articles on Zimbabwe and the region, with her enlightening non-fiction and moving novels about southern Africa and Jewish history, and above all personally, with many Encounters and readings, often at our general meetings, their always lively and pointed stories from the treasure chest of their rich experiences and historical-political memories. We always experience something new!…

And even now, in Corona times, when your reading trips have to be canceled, we can follow Ruth’s virtual readings, read her blog on her website and stay up to date with the newly founded Ruth Weiss Society. And we know that Ruth continues to work tirelessly and with a lot of energy, writes, prepares manuscripts for publications, prepares translations, communicates …

We are thankful for everything, Ruth, and let you live! We wish you all the best and many more healthy, active and enjoyable years.”
