From the author of Don’t Let’s Go to the Dogs Tonight: An African Childhood
Alexandra Fuller braids a multilayered narrative around the perfectly-lit‚ Happy Valley-era Africa of her mother’s childhood; the boiled cabbage grimness of her father’s English childhood; and the darker‚ civil war-torn Africa of her own childhood. A story of survival and madness‚ love and war‚ loyalty and forgiveness‚ this intimate exploration of Fuller’s family — at its heart‚ the story of her mother‚ Nicola — is as funny‚ terrifying‚ exotic‚ and unselfconscious as Nicola herself.
