The Emperor: Downfall of an Autocrat Paperback - 1989
by Ryszard Kapuscinski
First line
In the evenings I listened to those who had known the Emperor's court.
From the rear cover
this is Kapuscinski's rendition of Selassie's servants and closest associates accounts- humorous, frightening, sad, grotesque- of a man living amidst nearly unimaginable pomp and luxury while his people teetered between hunger and starvation.
