About this product

Product Information

Kuki Gallmann, whose bestseller I Dreamed of Africa captured the beauty and drama of the Kenyan Highlands, here evokes through a tapestry of interwoven episodes the magic that touches all African life. Whether the adventure of a moonlit picnic on a vanishing island, or the pleasure of building a unique bed; her son's enchantment with chameleons, or the mystical visit of a king cobra to his grave; a brief communion with a Maasai woman, the mysterious companionship of an elephant herd, or the the wild peace of night lost in the Highlands - in each event Kuki Gallmann conveys her delight and wonder at the whole fabric of creation. She recounts fleeting encounters and enduring friendships; meetings with animals; the vivid beauty of coast and ocean, the magnificence of the mountains and the teeming life of forest and savannah; disasters miraculously averted, and deaths imbued with resurrection. Where I Dreamed of Africa echoed the harmony between mankind and the environment, these stories also reveal the third element of that indivisible trinity: the African soul.
