| Summary |
Harry Street, a frustrated author/big game hunter lies dying in the shadow of Africa's Mount Kilimanjaro, reliving his life, adventures, ambitions, frustrations ... and many loves. Wounded both in his leg and in his spirit, Street lapses in and out of consciousness while memories of his love life pass before his eyes: from the spoiled countess who sought to possess him to the one who loved but left him, taking his spark of life with her long before he set foot on Kilimanjaro. |
