Under the Wings of Africa is a provocative mélange of poetry, memoir, and letters to a lover chronicling the author’s visit to South Africa in the company of his wife. Beautifully detailed descriptions of the landscape, the people, and the author’s greatest passion for bird watching are woven into a rich narrative of love and loss. In this book fact and fiction are expertly manipulated by Weier to create an aesthetic tapestry of his inner and outer worlds.
