Promotional Information

Oliver Stuart York - using a Nom de Plume to protect his identity in troubled Zimbabwe - has donated all the author's proceeds from the novel Man of Bees to elderly farmers and their workers displaced during the countries chaotic land reform programme. Whilst bookstores are slow to accept Man of Bees into stock, word of mouth sales on behalf of the Man of Bees Trust remain strong, with purchasers sometimes adding a donation, as well as paying US$15.00 per copy. It is notable that within the limited Zimbabwe market, the Trustees sold five hundred copies of Man of Bees in four weeks. More good news is that the Trustees have already distributed nearly six thousand dollars to the aged, with cataract operations scheduled soon for suffering old farm workers who require them. I shall up-date this page from time to time and confirm that the Man of Bees Trust is correctly incorporated within Zimbabwe; the Trustees accepting no payment for their services - a proper old-fashioned kind of charity. Alex Morris-Eyton, Publisher of Man of Bees, Harare, February 2017.

About the Author

Who is Oliver Stuart York? Part two of the novel gradually reveals an orphan, born in England, who grew up in Rhodesia and fought in that country's civil war. As soon as he could, he left to make a new life-but the people drew him back. This is his story. Who am I? My name is Alexander Morris-Eyton and I published Oliver's Man of Bees narrative on his behalf, safeguarding a fresh identity created by the British Secret Service. Now, at last, the Zimbabwe Censor Board has approved the book.
