Description - A Woman's Odyssey into Africa by Hanny Lightfoot Klein

This tells the story of one woman's mid-life flight from her stultified, middle-class, psychologically crippling and unfulfilled existence into a world of high adventure, danger, hardship and endurance, which ultimately led her to autonomy and recognition. "A Woman's Odyssey Into Africa" chronicles Hanny Lighfoot-Klein's three-year long solo backpacking treks through remote areas of sub-Saharan Africa. In the process, she discovers the mainsprings of strength within herself as she follows her own "drummer", finding the courage to face the darkest and most secret convolutions of her own mind. She weaves the story of her journey through the men, women and children she meets and the dangers and adventures she faced as a lone woman traveller - part and parcel of the path she chose to take. Through her story, she aims to infuse readers at any stage of life, especially women, with the courage to do what their individual drummer dictates, as she did, to find fulfillment in life.
