Product Details
Overview
A woman, travelling alone through time, Africa, and unnamed lands, searches for Dr. David Livingstone, celebrated by the West as a “discoverer” of Africa. Throughout her quest, for knowledge and for Livingstone, the traveller visits many peoples, listens to their stories and their silences, and learns about their Silence. Suspense, parables, and dreams play major parts in the story as it twists and turns toward the traveller’s confrontation with Livingstone-I-presume. Looking for Livingstone explodes Western assumptions about the “silence” of indigenous peoples; this is an elegant and compelling novel which beautifully gives voice to the ancestors to whom it is dedicated.
First published in 1991 by The Mercury Press, this new edition features an introduction by the author and an afterword by Michael Nardone.
