Now, I was quite willing to contend that there were a number of things wrong with the novel, that it had failed in a number of places, but I had not quite imagined that it had failed at achieving something called African authenticity.
Es biju gatava atzīt, ka šis tas romānā nebija, kā nākas, ka vairākās vietās tas nebija gana labs, bet es nebiju iedomājusies, ka tam nav izdevies sasniegt kaut kādu “Āfrikas autentiskumu”.
