This book was beautiful written. I felt as if I was there with the writer. I wanted to be there to witness those sunrises, the view of buffalo
buffaloes from overhead, the flax field, Nairobi streets.
The one qualm I have is with the portrayal of African people as natives. Given the time that this book was written, I can see why the terminology was used (but that doesn't make up for the fact that these were people who were not given the same rights and privileges as white people.)

Det er ikke en sammenhængende fortælling, men det føles som én. Blev lidt :( på de sidste sider tbh. Selvom der egentlig ikke sker så meget, så skriver Karen så godt at man gerne vil læse videre hele tiden.
Man skal lige huske på at bogen er gammel, og hendes syn på race-ting er outdated. Er det lidt eeh 😬 at læse? Yep. Men hey, what can you do.
