El Aug 5 2018, un lector dijo:
The ambiance and character of the land and people in this charming book are absolutely captivating. It makes you eagerly anticipate the next book in the sequence. Alexander McCall Smith's genuine love of Africa lures one to read more and more and his characters are both believable representative of real life.
