Description Pregnant, newly married, and living with her in-laws, Lily Austin writes a play about famed nineteenth-century British explorer Mary Kingsley and finds inspiration in her subject's writings, which include a cache of letters written to an unnamed woman of the future.
Publisher Description
At first, all Lily Austin knows about 19th century explorer Mary Kingsley is that, 100 years before, she was the first white woman to venture into the heart of Africa. But as Lily begins reading about Mary Kingsley, she discovers a kindred spirit. As she researches Kingsley's life—she has begun writing a play about her—Lily comes to witness Kingsley's incredible bravery and startling originality, qualities that prove inspirational to Lily, whose own bravery is required as she attempts to navigate dysfunctional and destructive relationships with her young husband, her extended family—and a legacy of abuse dating back to her childhood. Magnificently written and deeply felt, Richard Bausch's Hello to the Cannibals is a stirring triumph of the imagination by one of our master storytellers.
