This is Waris Dirie's story of returning to Somalia after being gone about 20 years. Even though she had lived in both Europe and the USA, she longed to see the land of her birth and to be reunited with her mother. Eventually the political situation in Somalia was calm enough for her to return. This is her story of that trip, of her mother's life, and of unexpectedly also finding her father. I enjoyed seeing Somalia through her eyes. It is different from Niger but also similar enough that I could picture all that she writes about.
