Anmeldelser
«Like Frank McCourt, Fuller writes with devastating humour and directness about desperate circumstances . . . tender, remarkable»
Daily Telegraph
«A book that deserves to be read for generations»
Guardian
«Perceptive, generous, political, tragic, funny, stamped through with a passionate love for Africa . . . [Fuller] has a faultless hotline to her six-year-old self»
Independent
«This enchanting book is destined to become a classic of Africa and of childhood»
Sunday Times
«Wonderful book . . . a vibrantly personal account of growing up in a family every bit as exotic as the continent which seduced it . . . the Fuller family itself [is] delivered to the reader with a mixture of toughness and heart which renders its characters unforgettable»
Scotsman
«Her prose is fierce, unsentimental, sometimes puzzled, and disconcertingly honest . . . it is Fuller's clear vision, even of the most unpalatable facts, that gives her book its strength. It deserves to find a place alongside Olive Schreiner, Karen Blixen and Doris Lessing»
