A fascinatingly many-sided personality . Vadim Bytensky retains the broadly arching interests of the traditional Russian intellectual . a man with a broad and devoted knowledge of world literature, music, philosophy, and politics that constantly illuminate his traveler's observations." "Bytensky emerges . as a well-rounded and harmonious personality, who combines sober reasoning with a romantic enthusiasm, a sentimental attachment to an old cultural inheritance, and an open, if sometimes skeptical and critical, curiosity about things new."
Dink mens aan Wes-Afrika, dink jy aan woestyn en kamele, Bedoeiene en swaar tekstielweefstof, silwer juweliersware en stomende speserye. Tog is daar naas die bykans mistieke idille-beeld mediaflitse van honger en armoede, politieke onstabiliteit en diktatorskap, vrees en verskrikking. As vryskutjoernalis in Dakar kry Louw die geleentheid om lande soos Senegal, Togo, Ghana, die Ivoorkus en Burkina Faso nie net as “toubab” (Westerling) en toeris te besoek nie, maar kry sy ook glimpse van die streek se hartklop: onreg, ongelykheid en onmag wat dekades na die val van kolonialisme nog die vinger wys na Europese hebsug ... maar ook die kuns, die kleur en die ritme van ’n leefstyl so diep verweef met die waai van die wind, die skakerings van sandduine en die val van die Afrika-son dat dit byna anderkant Westerse woordeskat le. Anderkant ’n eerste kyk. Anderkant Timboektoe.
-- Florida's often stormy history is a fitting backdrop for
restless spirits
