Minor characters in this work include Kongoni and a society columnist whose work is mentioned, but who is never named. During a particularly candid conversation early in the story one of the main characters asserts that he doesn't talk about his clients at the Mathaiga Club because it is bad form. As it begins, three people decide to have a gimlet and have a discussion about how red their faces get under the sun. However, courteous exchanges soon end after the title figure wakes up at 3 AM to find that his wife is not in the cot beside him. The next morning the protagonist and the guide he now hates, Robert Wilson, head out to shoot water buffalo. For ten points, identify this work that ends with the triumphant title figure being shot in the back by his unfaithful wife Margot, a work by Ernest Hemingway.
