RICCARDO ORIZIO - journalist and author
Thirty-five years after “I Dreamed of Africa” by Kuki Gallmann, another extraordinary, moving story of real life emerges from the savannahs of Kenya. Antonella Bonomi’s is a personal, almost intimate diary, written primarily for herself and her family, a collection of true adventures, including those of the soul and the heart, that unite the Africa of Yesterday to that of today.
FREDDIE DEL CURATOLO - journalist and author
Africa’s is an infinite song sung by millions of voices, human and animal, that has always sought its harmony and often, extraordinarily, manages to find it.
Antonella Bonomi, unlike Karen Blixen who was the first to transcribe the score, does not ask herself if Africa “knows its song”, because she herself has become part of those melodies. Narrating what is a “choice of love”, with a captivating style between autobiography and novel, pages recovered from a diary saved from the fires and from the surprises of life in Kenya alternate with frescoes of wild Nature, respect and deep gratitude for a Land that “can give a lot, but can take away just as much, suddenly and without a reason”.
BRIAN JACKMAN - conservationist and author
Antonella Belpietro’s lyrical account of life among the Maasai in Southern Kenya is Italy’s answer to Karen Blixen. Read it and be bewitched.
