About this listen
The Memory of an Elephant is an epic saga told by an aging African elephant as he makes a last, perilous journey to find the humans who rescued him as an orphan some fifty years ago. Interwoven with his narrative are the tumultuous lives of the family who raised and then lost him.
This timeless story is alternately heartwarming and heartbreaking, spanning east Africa, Great Britain, and New York from 1962 to 2015.

I didn't know if I could listen to it all - I did
I did not know if I could listen to it all for fear the people would be too cruel. I am glad I did. I rather liked hearing portions from the elephants perspective.

Amazing Story
I listened on my 1 hour drive to and from work each day and couldn’t wait to get back in the car to find out what happened next. Great story line! Ishy will be part of my memory now. Just about had to pull over a couple of times in tears and cheered really loud for Ishy too.

Great narration! Interesting storyline.
The storyline that followed the elephants life journey was captivating. I enjoyed seeing life from the perspective of the elephant. I learned alot about elephants and the harm done by poachers for ivory from their tusks.

A great story
Sad… but good. You will love and hate humans after this book. Must continue to do more to stop the needless slaughter… and abolish the ivory trade.
