    About this ebook

    ABOUT THE BOOK The Green Hills of Africa was written by renowned writer Ernest Hemingway between November 1933 and March 1934 while he was on safari in Africa. The story retells Hemingways experiences while hunting in the East Africa Tanzania region with his wife. The work is non-fiction and describes the difficulty and enjoyment to be had from big game hunting against the exotic and strange backdrop of the African countryside. The book is divided into four parts: Pursuit and Conversation, Pursuit Remembered, Pursuit and Failure, and, Pursuit as Happiness, each documenting a specific experience of the hunt.

    EXCERPT FROM THE BOOK

    The Green Hills of Africa is an autobiographical story documenting Hemingways emotions, sites, and experiences as he trekked through the wilds of southeastern Africa in search of rare and challenging game.

    The opening scene describes Hemingways quiet frustration and nonchalant attitude when a truck drives by and frightens off the kudu he is hunting. This singular scene shows the anticipation, failure, and dry emotions that are expressed throughout the book.

    Defeated, Hemingway returns to camp and on the way meets Kandisky, who frightened the kudu. Kadinsky joins Hemingways party and it seems that the two will get on quite well, sharing similar tastes in literature and opinion, but the more questions Kandisky asks, the more he wears on Hemingways nerves.
