Synopsis of The Ukimwi Road
En enero de 1992, Dervla Murphy se embarcó en un viaje en bicicleta desde Kenia hasta Zimbabue, pasando por Uganda, Tanzania, Malawi y Zambia. Pronto se dio cuenta de que África no es el continente adecuado para los viajeros que desean evitar el estrés. Se vio envuelta en los terribles problemas de las personas que conoció, como los devastadores efectos del SIDA (ukimwi es swahili para SIDA), la sequía y el colapso económico, el escepticismo sobre los planes de ayuda occidentales y la corrupción e incompetencia, tanto blanca como negra. 'The Ukimwi Road' es a veces una obra sombría, pero siempre una visión personal y convincente de África, sus pueblos y su futuro.
