Summary
The author of the phenomenal NEW YORK TIMES bestseller THE PARIS WIFE, takes readers to Kenya in the 1920s, where the beautiful young horse trainer, adventurer and aviator Beryl Markham tells the story of her life among the glamorous and decadent circle of British expats living in colonial East Africa. Before long, she catches the eye of the fascinating and bohemian Happy Valley set, including writer Karen Blixen and her lover Denys Finch Hatton, who will later be immortalized in Blixen's memoir, OUT OF AFRICA. The three become embroiled in a complex triangle that changes the course of Beryl's life.
