Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Growing up in remote Cameroon, Richard Afuma could not expect to live much past the age of 40, and his chances of any sort of education were slim. But at the age of eight, Afuma found his way to a school run by Baptist missionaries, where he learned to write on banana leaves. When he was ten, he saw his first white person who, from the evidence of a flip chart at school, he took to be Jesus Christ. He was told that the Land Rovers and Land Cruisers he saw driving down the rutted roads of Kom were made by these same peopleJesuses with supernatural powerswho were uniformly called Americans.In The Python Trail, Afuma portrays the kind of journey that many immigrants have made, but few have described. When he arrived in Maine as a college freshman, he'd never heard of a washing machine, a microwave oven, or a coffee maker; the bed sheets were so clean and white, he was afraid he'd dirty them; and he believed computer printers were run by ghosts.As much as anything, Afuma was shocked to learn that poverty and homelessness existed in a place whose streets he'd thought were paved with gold. It had never occurred to him that he himself might face hardships here, so that, despite having earned a master's degree in public administration, he would fail time and time again to find meaningful employment. Scam artists preyed on him. Racism, though subtle, followed him wherever he went.
