64 Photo: Ian Murphy n e w y o r k t i m e s b e s t s e l l e r Cocktail Hour Under the Tree of Forgetfulness Alexandra Fuller A story of survival and war, love and madness, loyalty and forgiveness, Cocktail Hour Under the Tree of Forgetfulness is an intimate exploration of Fuller’s parents and of the price of being possessed by Africa’s uncompromising, fertile, death-dealing land. In this follow-up to Don’t Let’s Go to the Dogs Tonight, we accompany Tim and Nicola Fuller as they hopscotch across the continent, restlessly trying to establish a home for their family. War, hardship, and tragedy follow the Fullers even as Nicola fights to hold on to her children, her land, and her sanity. But just when it seems that she has been broken by the continent she loves, the African earth revives and nurtures her. Cocktail Hour Under the Tree of Forgetfulness is Alexandra Fuller at her very best. AlexAndRA fulleR was born in England in 1969. In 1972, she moved with her family to a farm in southern Africa. She lived in Africa until her midtwenties. In 1994 she moved to Wyoming, where she now resides. “ Electrifying . . . Writing in shimmering, musical prose . . . [Fuller’s] own love for Africa reverberates throughout these pages, making the beauty and hazards of that land searingly real for the reader.” —Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times “ Ten years after publishing Don’t Let’s Go to the Dogs Tonight: An African Childhood, Alexandra (Bobo) Fuller treats us in this wonderful book to the inside scoop on her glamorous, tragic, indomitable mother.” —The Washington Post “ Subtly explores the intersections of personality, history and landscape in ways that are continually fresh and thoughtful.” —Charleston Post and Courier “ Fuller’s prose is so beautiful and so evocative that readers will feel that they, too, are sitting under that tree.” —Booklist (starred review) 12-Copy Floor Display with special header ISBN 978-0-14-750804-1 $180.00 (NCR) Readers Guide available at penguin.com 8-City Author Tour Online Publicity Radio Advertising Online Advertising Targeted Academic Mailing
