Swahili For The Broken-Hearted by Peter Moore
In the grand tradition of 19th-century scoundrels and romantics, Africa struck Peter Moore as the ideal place to find solitude and anonymity in the face of personal crisis. This is his account of heartbreak, hyenas and misplaced penguins as he travels from Cape to Cairo.

Peter Moore is an itinerant hobo who is lucky enough to be able to support his insatiable travel habit (he has visited 92 countries so far) through writing. His other acclaimed travel books are The Wrong Way Home, The Full Montezuma, Vroom with a View and the bestselling alternative travel guide, No Shitting in the Toilet. He currently lives in London, but does miss his collection of souvenir plastic snowdomes and Kinder Surprise toys which are in Sydney.
