u003cpu003eBill Bryson goes to Kenya at the invitation of CARE International, the charity dedicated to working with local communities to eradicate poverty around the world. Kenya, generally regarded as the cradle of mankind, is a land of contrasts, with famous game reserves, stunning landscapes, and a vibrant cultural tradition. It also provides plenty to worry a traveller like Bill Bryson, fixated as he is on the dangers posed by snakes, insects and large predators. But on a more sober note, it is a country that shares many serious human and environmental problems with the rest of Africa: refugees, AIDS, drought, and grinding poverty. u003c/pu003eu003cpu003eu003c/pu003eu003cpu003eTravelling around the country, Bryson casts his inimitable eye on a continent new to him, and the resultant diary, though short in length, contains the trademark Bryson stamp of wry observation and curious insight. All the author's royalties from Bill Bryson's African Diary, as well as all profits, will go to CARE International. u003c/pu003eu003cpu003eu003c/pu003eu003cpu003eIllustrated with 8pp of colour.u003c/pu003e

    BILL BRYSON
    Como muchos compañeros de generación, Bill Bryson creció fantaseando con ser un superhéroe: provisto de una vieja sudadera con un rayo sobre el pecho y una toalla atada al cuello, patrullaba su casa y su vecindario, saltando altos edificios y derrotando a villanos y malandrines (e imbéciles) —en su imaginación– como "El chico centella". Bill Bryson recrea la vida de su ...
