Kuki Gallmann's memoir of bringing up a family in Kenya in the 1970s, first with her husband Paulo, and then alone. This book is part elegaic celebration, part tragedy, and part love letter to the spirit of Africa.
Kuki Gallmann’s I Dreamed of Africa is a haunting memoir of bringing up a family in Kenya in the 1970s first with her husband Paulo, and then alone; and is part elegiac celebration, tragedy and love letter to the magical spirit of Africa. Kuki engages the reader with tales of elephants in her garden and the very real threat of lions that can kill in one moment of carelessness. The book is filled with wonderful descriptions of the African landscape and the struggles of daily life in Kenya, including the raising of her children, the food, the different tribes and how they interacted with Kuki and her family in their daily lives.
