This is at times a heart wrenching story...beautifully written. It's the story of a couple who move to Zimbabwe for work (he's a journalist). They begin to volunteer at an orphanage filled with abandoned children (many likely have AIDS or HIV). They decide to adopt one girl, Chipo. This is their story and it is at times frustrating yet somehow hopeful.
