| Abstract: | This book is based on the letters the author wrote to her friends from Lome', the capital of Togo, where she spent a year teaching American literature from 1983 to 1984. Her letters preserve her process of discovering the African world by living and working in it. They trace the pattern of adjusting to a foreign environment and probe the connections between Africa and herself. |
