Part travelogue, part diary of a volunteer, Brendan Clerkin’s engrossing and often hilarious account of a gap year in East Africa will linger long in the memory. The young Irishman takes the reader on a roller-coaster ride from the slums of Nairobi to the snow-capped summit of Mount Kilimanjaro, and from the Turkana desert to exotic Zanzibar.
The people he met and befriended in Africa are described with humanity and wit: tribal elders, missionaries, bureaucrats, witch-doctors, white settlers, streetchildren, politicians, con-men and good-time girls.
