Geographer and traveler Semyon Pavlyuk, over nearly 20 years of fieldwork, visited most of Africa's 54 countries and wrote a book that combines a scientific approach with genuine love, and nuanced analysis with vivid travel writing. Built on a dialectic (Africa ancient and modern, rich and poor, progressive and backward, united and diverse), the book is a profound, immersive exploration of a continent too often portrayed in the media as a mere hub of all possible ills. "All the Colors of Africa" avoids a colonial lens, but instead explores the riches of Mansa Musa's medieval empire, the struggle for freedom, military dictatorships, and an encounter with a buffalo on a narrow path. It also offers lessons that the rest of the world, including post-Soviet states, can learn from the experience of African countries.
