When I first read the info on the back of the book, i thought It would be just what I wanted. But like others have written, it became boring. I think her husband was lucky to get rid of her and her employer was stupid to give her an opportunity to report from abroad and I …more don't think she had a real good sense of food - which is the only thing she sounded interested in. I did not finish the book-but I did buy it. (less)
