A hilarious account of an unlikely taxi-ride through one of Africa’s most varied and fascinating countries.Annie Caulfield has written a wonderful eccentric travel book about Dahomey, now known as Benin, a country where corruption is rife and where Catholicism goes hand in hand with Gri Gri – the local voodoo. Annie experiences this country of contrasts from the back of a second-hand Peugeot, driven by Isadore, a wacky control-freak who introduces her to the full flavour of this extraordinary country.
