The follow up book after the fantastic "White Massai" and it does'nt fail to capture again the readers bond with the author of the first book.

Corrine's account of life after returning home to Switzerland after fleeing Kenya and her husband with their daughter Napirai.

This book I read within two days and answered the questions that the reader desperatley would want to know after reading "White Massai".
A truly brave and inspirational lady who rebuilt her life, and looked back at her time spent in Africa with love and affection for her "African family".

I found this book extremely fascinating. I guess that when I found this book in the library I wasn't aware that she did write a follow up of the "White masai" and was so excited to found this coopy. I had extreme eagerness to know what experiences she would have experienced back in Switzwerland.
Definantly you need to have read the "White Masai" to understand her feelings of an uncertaint future back in Switzwerland yet more, having to get habituated back to her original culture which for so long had been completly different.
I highly recommend this book.

Not as interesting as her original book. I love the fact that she always landed on her feet. Amazing!

A co-worker had purchased this second book in a series after I had introduced her to the amazing story of Corinne in "White Masai". She graciously lent me "Back From Africa", which tells of what happened when Corinne went back to Europe after living a rugged existence in Africa. It filled in those intervening years before the story takes up once again in "Reunion in Barsaloi".

Malísimo. No era necesario, podrían haber dejado la historia tal cual.

Het was leuk om te lezen hoe het Corinne Hofmann vergaan is. Je moet het wel echt lezen als vervolg op "de blanke Masai".

It's funny to me how I can think the author is crazy in the first book but in this book I admire her for her will power. She gets back on her feet again and again and my hat is off to her. I'm amazed at her generosity to her African family. I wonder what it would take to get them out of the third world status. I wish there were pictures in this book like there were in her first book.

Well, enjoyed reading the story. The author described the story in simple language understandable to any body and every body. She tried to settle back in her own country after suffering a culture difference and domestic abuse from a much 'low calibre' partner. Her life in undoubtedly motivating and perhaps every single mother should gather strength from her life.

Since I have finished the series I will day that White Masai was far far interesting. Anyway kudos to a bold woman and her knack of writing.

I think I may have read her first book, "White Masai" years ago. I can't remember for sure, but it seems familiar. I still don't quite see how two people who don't speak the same language can be "in love." Isn't communication at some deeper level required? Anyway, this is the story of her escape from Africa with her daughter, leaving behind her Masai husband and family, and her subsequent success and fame following the publication of the first book. Mildly interesting, but I won't be reading anything further.

Před lety jsem četla Bílou Masajku a následně i třetí díl (nevím už proč), tento druhý mi chyběl. Literárně se nic extra očekávat nedá, ale u této mě moc nebavil ani obsah. Bez emocí, jen výčet událostí po návratu z Keni.

I think Corinne Hofmann's writing has improved since her first book. Her story here is not as compelling but much better written. She's still self absorbed but I didn't feel like I wanted to slap sense into her quite so often as I did reading The White Masai.
