Masai Dreaming

by Justin Cartwright

Published 27 August 1993

'A provocative novel about a disillusioned writer who travels to Africa to research a screenplay.' - Esquire

'Ambitious ... the book works well, as a story, as a compendium of reflections on race and nationhood and as a novel with a refined and distinctive narrative voice and one marvellously complete character, the old White Kenyan, Tom Fairfax ... an elegantly complex, unfailingly intelligent novel' - The Spectator

'Cartwright makes his pages as vividly sensuous as they are caustically intelligent' - The Sunday Times
