Yankee Girls in Zulu Land

Louise Vescelius Sheldon

1888

American Literature, History - Modern (1750+), Travel Writing

Three American sisters flee the gray伦敦阴郁的冬天,踏上前往南非的旅程,只为拯救他们体弱多病的兄弟弗兰克。露易丝、伊娃和弗兰克在医生的建议下,带着对阳光和冒险的渴望,登上了「特洛伊」号轮船,却因露易丝忘记带上日记本,差点误了开船, 一段匆忙的出租车追逐成为她们伟大航行的戏剧性开端。1888年的这部旅行文学作品以生动的笔触描绘了南非的风土人情,在英国殖民统治下的祖鲁兰的土地上,这些美国女性遇到了传教士、商人,以及这片充满异国风情土地上形形色色的人物。这部作品之所以历久弥新,是因为它捕捉了维多利亚时代旅行者特有的视角, 既有跨文化的真诚好奇,也有那个时代不可避免的局限。它适合喜爱旅行文学、历史探险以及想要了解近代殖民时期非洲的读者。
