Out of Africa. As award-winning Globe and Mail Africa correspondent Stephanie Nolen bids farewell to a place she's come to love, she reflects on how it has changed, and how it changed her. Africa photo gallery
I read the piece, and it was okay, but the title of the piece is annoying, as is the cliched "Africa changed me" (living in a different culture will do that to you, as will living through your twenties), and I can't help but feel that Stephanie Nolen is Edward Greenspon's prize pet, and is carefully being nurtured by her verbose, self-important benefactor for greater things. posted by KokuRyu at 11:49 PM on December 16, 2008 [1 favorite]
