3 quotes from West With The Night

"I had a wonderful childhood, I was happy during that time. I never knew that I was poor. I simply had a love of the things about me that were beautiful in life; my family and my home were made quite right, and I wasn’t aware of our financial circumstances."
"There is a joy in recalling, in writing about one's life and one’s dreams, which I hope will remain untarnished by the passage of time."
"I learned that the actual act of writing could be a kind of magical transformation, a way of turning an intangible experience into something real and lasting."

Author : Beryl Markha

Beryl Markham was a remarkable figure in aviation and literature, best known for her captivating memoir "West with the Night," published in 1942. Born in England in 1902, she moved to Kenya with her family at a young age, where she developed a deep connection with the African landscape and its cultures. As a pioneering aviator, Markham made history by becoming the first woman to fly solo non-stop across the Atlantic Ocean from east to west in 1936, a feat that highlighted her adventurous spirit and extraordinary determination. Her writing is celebrated for its vivid imagery and lyrical prose, drawing on her rich experiences as a trailblazer in a male-dominated field and reflecting her profound love for the natural world. Markham's life was marked by both triumph and tragedy, and her works continue to resonate with readers, offering an intimate glimpse into the complexities of life in colonial Africa and the quest for personal freedom.
