A reprint of a beloved novel, first published in 1987, set at a medical clinic in Tanzania and drawn from the author's experiences. It's a complex portrait of two women -- a local healer and western doctor -- and their growing and unlikely friendship. In celebration of its 20th anniversary, Soho Press will also reissue Maria Thomas' Come to Africa and Save Your Marriage, and African Visas. Thomas is the pseudonym for Roberta Worrick, who died in a plane crash in Ethiopia on a congressional mission.  (EAF148, $12.00)
