The Shadow of the Sun by Ryszard Kapuściński

5.0

This is my favorite non-fiction book about Africa. Kapuscinski tells stories about his own experiences in many countries on the continent, interwoven with the history of the last 50 years. I picked this book up almost by accident at London Heathrow, and have since re-read it many times and have lent it to many people.
