I did volunteer work at Kuki's Ol Ari Nyrio in 11/07 and it was the most amazing experience of my life. I also had dinner with Kuki and she is an artist- attentive, creative, intelligent, and misses nothing. Africa is a place like no other-you cannot expect the norm - truth is always more interesting & stranger than fiction, remember.

While Kuki Gallman may not be this way in real life, she does come across in her book as a self-indulgent privileged white woman. Although she speaks about her fascination for Africa starting from her childhood, it is never presented to the reader in tangible or inspirational terms. Okay, a few of the hunting scenes and descriptions of the wildlife were vivid, but the land and the people are never really made interesting enough for the reader. The reader should be aware that this book is a very personal ... Read More
