Product Description
An engaging, eccentric, and humourous travel book about a most inhospital country in Africa: Dahomey. This is a country where corruption is rife, where Catholicism shares a place with Voodoo, and where the north is Muslim, arid and tough and the south colourful, sophisticated and artistic. Here, the countryside ranges from pretty English rural, to arid sub-Sahara. All this and more is seen by Annie in the back seat of a taxi driven by control-freak Isidore.
