When an award-winning novelist becomes an Overlander, the result is this fascinating account of her eight-month adventure on the Dark Continent.

You'll learn just how many diseases you can catch in eight months, despite your inoculations. You'll see an ancient ceremony in which the men of a West African village willingly plunge knives into their own bellies. And you'll experience the thrill of having baby gorillas playing right in front of you.
