Author: E M Godfrey-Dagg
Paperback. Price includes postage
A series of autobiographical stories about one woman's life as an expatriate in the Middle East. Funny and insightful writing. A wonderful collection of anecdotes, each of which can be read in a few minutes-ideal for the coffee table. This book details the day-to-day experiences of a woman in the turbulent world of the Arabian Peninsula, from the ordinary humdrum of dealing with compound living to the drama of encounters with terrorists.


​Included are reflections on her many journeys from the Middle East, the hub of world travel.
 
The author's anecdotes and reflections have a uniqueness and freshness which will delight all readers while opening them to the intriguing culture of the Middle East in ways that are surprising.
 
She draws a wonderful parallel between her experiences as a traveller and migrant and that of her Scottish grandmother who also left her homeland. It is a remarkable part of this book that the author's exotic experiences should bring her so close to her deceased grandmother.
