Cool book. If you are looking for photos that might inspire you to look at Africa beyond Safaris and misery, this would be it. The photos are great; they're stylish and suggest a point of view not often seen, plus they are intimate views of homes that (seemingly) belong to ordinary people... its rare that you can get coffee table-book quality photos in such a small and economical book. It is a cool presentation to show how different cultures approach decorating and flair.
