Talking about Jane Austen in Baghdad

Informationen zum Autor Bee Rowlatt & May Witwit Klappentext Bee Rowlatt is a former show-girl turned BBC World Service journalist. A mother of three and would-be do-gooder, she can find keeping her career going while caring for her three daughters (and husband) pretty tough, even in leafy North London. May Witwit is an Iraqi expert in Chaucer and sender of emails depicting kittens in fancy dress. She is prepared to face every hazard imaginable to make that all-important hairdresser's appointment. Zusammenfassung A London mum and Iraqi teacher should have nothing in common. Yet now, despite their differences, they're the firmest of friends. This title tells the story of two women who share laughter and tears, and swap their confidences, dreams and fears.
