Longing for Africa on pre-order

Ant Press is delighted to announce that Annie Schrank’s memoir, Longing for Africa: Journeys Inspired by the Life of Jane Goodall. Part One: Ethiopia, is now available for pre-order and will be released on 23rd April 2018. 

When twenty-year-old Annie leaves her privileged life in suburban New York to set up a leather clothing factory in Ethiopia, she anticipates glorious savannas, magnificent animals, and colorful tribesmen. Her treasured childhood Africa scrapbook never prepared her for the isolated, barren mountains of northern Ethiopia, relentless poverty, and a ten-year drought and famine unacknowledged by the world.

Housed in a primitive mud hut with no electricity or indoor plumbing, falling in love with a handsome Italian, and forced to flee the military coup that toppled Haile Selassie, will Annie find the Africa of her childhood dreams or will she return home, disillusioned?

Testimonials

“Having had my first book published by a major NYC, I didn’t know what to expect when working with Victoria Twead and Ant Press. What a revelation! She responds quickly, kindly, patiently, and accurately, and she’s a whiz at promotion and marketing. I’ll be writing at least two more books, and I’ll definitely use Ant Press again and again.”
