Jeg havde glædet mig til denne klassiker, som åbenbart er fantastisk, siden den også blev lavet til film, men jeg måtte ned i det sure grønne græs, bide hårdt og efter lang tids kamp opgive ævret... Bogen ligger nu på hylden - incl. bogmærke - til den skønne dag hvor jeg har lyst til at læse en bog hvor der sker... ingenting.

Wow, just wow.

The highlight was absolutely the prose. It's so, so beautiful at times, especially when the narrator describes nature and the Kenyan wildlife and natural environment. 

The cons of reading this book is the blatant racism and atrocious generalization of POC. Clearly written by a colobizer to other colonizers.
