{"product_id":"i-dream-of-africa-poems-photos-stories","title":"I Dream of Africa: Poems, Photos \u0026 Stories","description":"\u003cp\u003eÒI Dream of Africa by Diana Saltoon is packed full of poems, photos \u0026amp; stories showcasing East Africa, the Serengeti, and the Maasai people in the 1970s. We also hear of pioneers Louis and Mary Leakey (Olduvai Gorge in Tanzania) famous for their groundbreaking discoveries of early human ancestors and tools. We hear of pioneering conservation film-maker Hugo van Lawick, and of course, the most famous of all safari camps, that of Ndutu, TanzaniaÕs oldest safari lodge! The place is packed full of history and magic amongst the tragedies and the unbelievable beauty...SaltoonÕs skillful weaving throughout I Dream of Africa, with her many visual disciplines of creativity, all come together as intense atmospheric storytelling. The forms of written narrative chronicles are of both standalone haiku and tanka poems, which are a dance, plus haibun (prose \u0026amp; haiku) and tanka-bun (prose \u0026amp; tanka) which are an alchemy of welding prose with poetry. We end this amazing book with a fitting photograph of movement, time and space, and the best view that can be had, as itÕs the Flight of a Golden Eagle Ð Serengeti.Ó\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAlan Summers\u003cbr\u003e\nfounder, Call of the Page\u003cbr\u003e\nfounder\/editor, The Pan Haiku Review, I Dream of Africa, Africa, Travel, Haibun, Haiku, Adventure, Diana Saltoon| 9781257485208 | 116PAGES\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Diana Saltoon","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46768234463393,"sku":"9781257485208","price":37.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0462\/1120\/3233\/files\/nvm8zgy-front-shortedge-384.jpg?v=1785207442","url":"https:\/\/bookswholesale.myshopify.com\/products\/i-dream-of-africa-poems-photos-stories","provider":"BooksWholesale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
