This ex-library paperback, which is slightly damaged and showing its' age, was given to me by my sister-in-law C. for bookcrossing.
It tells the story of the author, who was born in India, and her eldest daughter Emma, who fell in love with Africa and in 1991 married a charismatic Sudanese war lord.
REVIEW:-"A very interesting , yet at times very harrowing, story. I have to admit that some of the politics went over my head but I was sometimes in awe of Emma and at others distressed by her very cavalier attitude towards life in general. All of the author's family seemed to live very full and adventurous lives, lots of which I would never wish to emulate but I nevertheless found it a fascinating and very original read."

I already have books travelling in many countries around the world-a list can be found on my bookcrossing profile.

When re-releasing this book please be aware that airports are not a good place to leave books unless they have a specific book exchange shelf or area, due to security problems, so they may well just be disposed of. Also charity shops may well discard books that have been labelled in any way and they mostly chose only the books in the very best condition
to place on their shelves and discard the rest-so another bad release option.

Thank you for this book. It looks good and will cover a country in the 666/reading around the world challenge
