When Anila Prineveau Goldie accepted the job offer to teach in Khartoum, Sudan, she set out to overcome her fear of living in a Muslim country through befriending the local Sudanese. Written in a conversational style, her informative, entertaining, and authentic short stories will inspire you. You will experience a Hadendoa medicine man saving her life, a Muslim family keeping vigil over her when she is terribly ill, a feast prepared in her honor by women from a local mosque, an erotic wedding dance, and mortar fire exploding next to her hotel. She weaves together vivid descriptions of the exotic Sudanese Muslims along with insight, wisdom and lessons learned. A deep respect for all humanity shines through on every page of The Problem is Not 364 Days in Sudan.
Although this is a beautifully penned experience journal by the narrator, it fails to dig deeper in the existing problems persisting in Sudan. Therefore, the title of the book doesn't seem to do justice with the content of the book.
