I Wish I Could Say I Was Sorry

The travel author recalls a 1950s childhood in post-war London's every shade of grey and the splendours of Africa as, with her glamorous mother and father, Susie boards a ship bound for exotic, technicolor Kenya. There Susie's life disintegrates at break-neck speed into a web of jealousy, rejection and casual cruelty.

Autorul calatoriei isi aminteste de o copilarie din anii 1950, in fiecare nuanta de gri din Londra postbelica si de splendoarea Africii, pe masura ce, impreuna cu mama si tatal ei plin de farmec, Susie urca pe o nava catre Kenya exotica, tehnicolora. Acolo viata lui Susie se dezintegreaza intr-o retea de gelozie, respingere si cruzime.
