This shouldn't be too much of an issue because the Sun's rising (and setting) position on the horizon stays almost exactly the same for a few days either side of solstice (it's what solstice means - "Sun stands still").puppet government.

I gave that five stars, and reading that book convinced me to buy more of this authors work, including this book, which I have finally made time for from my shelf.

In the Shadow of the Rising Sun: Surviving a Prisoner of War

Ryszard Kapuscinski sits under the branchy shade of a solitary acacia and stares at the incommensurable moonlike landscape unfolding in front of him. Plains covered with parched, thorny shrubs and vast extensions of sandy ground seem ablaze in a shimmering haze that refracts on the journalist’s eyes forcing him to squint. “Water and shade, such fluid, inconstant things, and the two most valuable treasures in Africa”, this half-historian, half-journalist recalls while revisiting the thirty years he spent roaming the most recondite spots of this battered continent castigated both by man and the most hostile aspect of nature. A place where its people are one with its arid terrain, blinding light and spicy smells. A place where the night belongs to myth and spirits, where time stretches and melts without shape or tempo. A place where history does not exist in archives or records because it can only be measured by memory, by what can be recounted here and now. So I sit down next to Ryszard and I listen to his chronicle. Kong Xiangxi (H. H.

Bombs were falling as they tried to evacuate the city by a British ship, only to be refused at the gangway. The next three years were spent living in captivity in the Changi Prison, and with it, went her childhood and innocence. This humour might seem when taken out of context to be a belitling or criticizing of the driver but within the framework of Kapuscinski's admiration for Africa and its peoples it does not read like that. I chose the example purely cos it made me smile and was a wonderful example of his ability to create in such a way that you met the people of whom he was speaking.confiscation: of Chinese flour mills, 51–52; of factories, 46; from Shanghai enterprises, 31, 31n65; of U.S. and British firms, 36–37, 37n89
