Reading this was WORK. I know nothing about Africa, and nothing about anthropology, and this was like reading a graduate degree level textbook on both subjects. It's nice to learn lots of new words and bits of the book was humorous, but I never got to understand the main characters. In general I don't think it works when a male author tries writing female point of view. Norman Rush details every thought his characters ever had and chronicles every article they ever read, it just seemed dull to me.
