In Don’t Let’s Go to the Dogs Tonight, Alexandra
Fuller remembers her African childhood with candor and
sensitivity. Though it is a diary of an unruly life in an
often inhospitable place, it is suffused with Fuller’s
endearing ability to find laughter, even when there is
little to celebrate. Fuller’s debut is unsentimental and
unflinching but always captivating. In wry and sometimes
hilarious prose, she stares down disaster and looks back
with rage and love at the life of an extraordinary family in
an extraordinary time.
