emotional inspiring reflective slow-paced

4.5

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.)
