Burundi and the Birth of the Beatles

This bright and introspective story of spiritual awakening begins with the events that lead to the author's arrival, at age thirteen, into Africa's heart - a heart filled with much the same anguish and excitement that existed in the heart of the young girl narrating. Each chapter is a delicate essay in human thought and each follows the seasons of nature and the evolution of the spirit. Beginning with The Void, from which all awareness is born, Barbara Emrys introduces the people, the events and the philosophical ideas that charge her growing consciousness.
