A young African president must contend with hostile regional dictators, ancient traditions, geopolitical interests, endemic corruption, and the norms of a patriarchal society as she tries to uplift her economically-hobbled country. Kooky dictators, lecherous men of power, female circumcision/female genital mutilation, idealistic Peace Corps volunteers and the pulsating beat of sacred drums are just some of the vivid splashes of color in this rich tapestry.
