In 'Monkeys Up A Tree' Rosemary Gordon takes you on a journey of her extraordinary life growing up in Africa.
A riveting account of a childhood buffeted by both the outer mayhem of life in an exotic land, and the inner world of constant confusion and hurt that come with the fluctuations of a mercurial mother, who in the wake of battling her inner demons, wreaks havoc in the lives of her loved ones.
It is a fascinating and poignant tale that includes malaria, crocodiles, green chickens and a marauding leopard, by turns heart-breaking, horrifying and sometimes hilarious, painting a vivid window into the curious complexities of life in the landscape of colonial Africa.
