摘要

Where Hatcliffe Extension once stood, there is now only rubble and desolation. In this northern neighbourhood of Harare, Zimbabwe's capital, the wind sweeps across an area where more than 7,000 people had their homes, until they were ordered by the police to destroy them. A creche for AIDS orphans did not escape the onslaught. There is nothing left of the buildings, save for the concrete floors and the crumbling wall of what used to be the dining room. Nearby, a barefoot widow and her two children stand in the ruins of their shack, their meagre belongings gathered under plastic sheets. Though relocated here over a decade ago by the government, they now sleep in the open, with nothing to protect them from Harare's biting winter cold. With tears in her eyes and a broken voice, she shows a lease and receipts for rents she has paid. "I have nowhere to go," she laments.
