4.0

Picked this up at the airport and Durban and devoured most of it on the flight to Cape Town. Wanner writes with humor and ease, like your best friend is telling you a hilarious story over drinks at the end of the day.

I didn’t understand all of the cultural and political references she made, but I loved reading an African travel memoir written by an African woman and I’ve written down some of the other writers and books she mentions to research. Here’s hoping we see Wanner and more African writers’ works available in the states.
