This is a wild story but my dad, who was then a junior doctor, gave Idi Amin a thorough medical examination and went back to my mum’s place that night, warning her “don’t go into medical school next week; Amin is checking his fitness, he’s planning something”. The next week, Amin launched his coup.
My family keep telling me stories of when Idi Amin came to power in 1970s Uganda. Almost one believed it because it happened so fast. People were being abducted from their offices, from their operating theatres and their university accommodation, never to be seen again. It happened overnight.

Question (please reply below so I can make a thread): what is a book you read that, for whatever good reason, absolutely blew your mind? All genres welcome: just trying to expand my thinking (and my bookshelf obviously). Thank you!
