Leaving before the Rains Come
Episode 4 of 5: 'They didn't roar and battle and laugh'

In a follow-up to the award-winning memoir "Don't Let's Go to the Dogs Tonight", Alexandra Fuller charts her tempestuous marriage to the man she thought would save her from the chaos of life in Africa.

In 1992, after her parents had seen off all other suitors, Alexandra Fuller married Charlie Ross, a charismatic adventurer and polo player, and the only man who seemed able to stand up to her parents. In this witty, frank and courageous memoir, Fuller charts their twenty tempestuous years together.

Today: Alexandra struggles to keep afloat, when her safe and risk-free life in the US turns out to have been an illusion.
