À propos de cet audio

 In this thoroughly entertaining book, the best-selling, critically acclaimed author of The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency continues the story of Mma "Precious" Ramotswe, the clever proprietor of the only detective agency in all of Botswana.

Now engaged to Mr. J.L.B. Matekoni, Mma Ramotswe must contend with the hostility of her fianci's unscrupulous maid, who quickly begins plotting the disintegration of the arrangement. Then an American woman asks for help to learn the truth behind her son's disappearance in Africa, and Mma Ramotswe has all the troubles she can handle.

Part detective story, part comedy of manners and part African travelogue, Tears of the Giraffe is an indisputable joy.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"I haven't read anything with such unalloyed pleasure for a long time." (The Sunday Telegraph)
Tout
Les plus pertinents
This novel is a touching tale with a most improbable ending. Nonetheless, I found it encompassed a number of ethical issues. The author cleverly relates stories involving women and men who have poor or absent moral compasses, to use a popular phrase. This deficit has been attributed to insufficient love from parents or other caregivers. What a giraffe has to do with anything remains a mystery to be addressed by a detective in a future novel.

Wonderful novel
