Industry Reviews
"There remains a book that gives much pleasure, quick, warm and highly evocative. Her descriptions of Africa are superb. She seems to define the indefinable quality of the country, where so many others, dabbling in mystique, have failed...Though it cannot help throwing an oblique light on politics, Mrs. Huxley's book is not about politics or race--these things she has dealt with in more appropriate contexts--but about something it is good to hear and valuable to have on record--the happiness and joy of a life that was, essentially, of Africa."
New York Times Book Review - Nadine Gordimer (09/13/1959)
