Review:
'Extraordinary' * Hollywood Reporter * 'It's a truly riveting read, better than any reality TV show' * Publishing News * 'An extraordinary and unputdownable tale' * Bookseller * 'The White Masai has already sold four million copies in Europe and has now been turned into a big Hollywood film. Theses successes suggest that, in publishing terms at least, Corinne Hofmann has finally struck gold' * Ireland on Sunday * 'A deliciously readable book - it really is possible to gulp it down in one long sitting' * Mail on Sunday * 'This extraordinary story is a dashing tale of love and adventure in contemporary Kenya' -- Mavis Cheek * Daily Mail Critic's Choice * 'Hofmann is a talented writer, describing with unflinching detail the consequences of a passion that combines the element of a holiday romance with troubling fantasies about the noble savage. Gripping' -- Joan Smith * Independent * 'I've been completely riveted by it - in fact haven't put it down all morning. What an amazing story!... one of the bravest and most vivid I've read in years and I'm not surprised it's a bestseller' -- Deborah Maggach
