Ernest Hemingway - As Verdes Colinas de África
17.75€
For about two months, Ernest Hemingway and his wife Pauline Pfeiffer traveled through East Africa, participating in a safari in the Serengeti region. Originally published in 1935, *The Green Hills of Africa* is a testament to this adventure. Here, the writer reflects on the fascination of hunting, the wonder of the African landscape, and the necessary respect of man for the beauty and glory of that wild territory, permanently besieged by a foreign invader. Between chases of lions, buffalo, rhinoceroses, and the fascinating kudus, white-striped antelopes that Hemingway desired more than any other animal, this is a record of a profoundly intimate experience, but also an exceptional landmark of great travel literature.
