North of South – An African Journey –

“Travel narrative in he classic tradition of Graham Greene, North of South is brilliant, comic, controversial – a scathing and intimate documentary on Africa and its people today. As the travels through Kenya, Tanzania, and Zambia, novelist Shiva Naipaul discovers the exotic desolation and romance, the bitter tensions and failed dreams of a fractured continent in search of its identity. His is social commentary at its best. – Larry McMurtry, The Washington Star”
