![]() It’s a bit of a cold dose of reality because there are so many things truly wrong with the world. ![]() It’s not about Goodall’s own experiences like the rest of the novel, but rather about what she hopes for the future. I enjoyed how the last three chapters of this novel really focus on the future of our planet. But one that I will possibly try to sink my teeth into again in the future. Each chapter covers a very large chunk of Goodall’s life and only gives a brief glimpse into each moment of her history and journey towards being the internationally recognised figure that she is. The language in this novel was very accessible and obviously geared towards a younger audience. Where In the Shadow of Man focused on the short time period in which Goodall started her work at Gombe, My Life with the Chimpanzees was a much broader overview of a whole lifetime. My Life with Chimpanzees gives a much broader outline of Goodall’s personal history and a brief overview of her entire lifetime. ![]() I mean, she’s a goddamn icon and an inspiring woman. ![]() I think, though, that anything by Jane Goodall will leave me feeling pretty damn happy. This wasn’t quite as good, but still, it was wonderful. My Bookshelves: Conservation, Memoirs, Nature, Non-fiction, ![]()
