Description
Barbara Greene's travelogue recounts her journey to tropical West Africa with her cousin Graham Greene in 1935. The trip was an adventure that neither she nor her cousin anticipated, and it led to the creation of a masterclass in travel writing.
The story is one of comic misadventure, filled with colourful detail and good humour. Barbara's exasperation at her cousin's antics, as well as her own yearnings for comfort and familiarity, are woven throughout the narrative.
