- Annotation
- Critical survey aligned with Edward Said's ideas of colonialism and imperialism in global travel by westerners. Suggests that despite Hemingway's professed comfort with the continent in his memoir, he "served the interests of colonial powers by writing about Africa from a limited and manipulated perspective." Hemingway's paradoxical regard for wilderness and problematic observations of African people amount to an "imperial nostalgia."
