An African novel UA

Opis

Is it possible to combine an adventure novel and a fiction reportage? Yes, because this is exactly what this book is about: the love of travelling and the search for love. When his business partner half-jokingly advises him to marry a Tanzanian woman, as it will save him a lot of money on future trips, the protagonist, a Ukrainian who runs tours to Africa, takes action. This gives rise to a great adventure, a colourful kaleidoscope of funny and touching stories about failed dates and sightseeing, as well as a deep knowledge of the country. Observing the life of wild animals on safari, climbing to the top of a volcano sacred to the Maasai people, visiting tribes, a coffee ceremony on a mountainside, rafting on the rapids of the Nile, and contacts with not-so-safe people. Without avoiding painful topics, the author talks about the colonisation and decolonisation of Africa, the problems of post-colonial countries, and why you can't find books written in Swahili.
