I was crazy about this book... I still am.
"I suppose I shall have to tell you," I sadi slowly "I'm not ashamed of it. You cant be ashamed of something that just - happens to you. Thats what he did. He was detestable - rude and ungrateful - but that I think I understand. It's like a dog that's been chained up - or badly treated - it'll bite anybody. That's what he was like - bitter and snarling. I don't know why I care - but I do. I care horribly. Just seeing him has turned my whole life upside-down. I love him. I want him. I'll walk all over Africa barefoot till I find him, and I'll make him care for me. I'd die for him. I'd work for him, slave for him, even beg or borrow for him! There - now you know!"
Reading this book was a pure pleasure... :)
