Guide to the Birds of East Africa

A wonderfully warm love story set in contemporary Kenya — timeless, funny, clever and utterly charming, starring the reserved, honourable Mr Malik. You wouldn't notice him in a Nairobi street — except, perhaps, to comment on his carefully sculpted comb over — but beneath his unprepossessing exterior lies a warm heart and a secret passion. Not even his friends at the Asadi Club know it, but Mr Malik is head-over-heels in love with the leader of the Tuesday morning bird walk of the East African Ornithological Society, Rose Mbikwa.
