The Ultimate Safari is a selection from Nadine Gordimer's Jump and Other Stories. The protagonist is a young girl who sets out on a long journey along with her siblings and grandparents to seek refuge from a war happening in their home country of Mozambique. The narrator and the other characters in the story remain nameless. The anonymous characters foreshadow that the group of travelers are just a few of many who flee from the violence of the bandits who have destroyed their country. This is vindicated later on in the story when the family arrives at a refugee camp and finds out they among hundreds of refugees who seek shelter.
