Book Review of I Dreamed of Africa

I Dreamed of Africa
reviewed on
Helpful Score: 2


This book and its companion that came out a few years later, African nights, are among the most haunting ones I've ever read, not because Gallmann writes "great literature," but because of her great heart, her courage, her love, and because of what it tells us about Africa.

It contains a Glossary of African words and thirty black and white photographs.
