"Now this was a bad snake, this one. There is was. Look at the head! Ow! and those evil eyes! Mma Ramotswe shuddered, and read; "the above picture is of an adult male black mamba, measureing 1.87 meters."(112)."
This is a cultural difference simply because there are different geographical features in Africa than in any where else in the world, which allows different animals to live there.THis setting creates many different obstacles for the characters to over come than the story could if it took place in America. There would never be such a poisonous snake in the US. in fact, there isn't many exotic animals at all.

"Mr. Maketoni took her mug and poured her more tea. he was silent now- not out of anger, or resentment- but becasue it had taken all his energy to make to make his declaration of love and had no more words for the time being (138)."
Dear Mma Ramotswe,
I am very sad that you turned down Mr. Maketoni's marriage. He is a genuinly nice person and would treat you in a nice manner. I know Note scorned you, and it is hard to fall in love after you heart has been broken, but Mr Maketoni seems to really have your best intrests at heart. I hoppe you reconsider.
