JANE AUSTEN IN BAGHDAD


What is this book about?  It is an exchange of e-mail messages (from January 2005 to October 2008) between two very different women who, little by little,  develop a firm friendship based on a strong feeling of sympathy.
May teaches English Literature at a university in Baghdad,  to a class of girls  and, even though nothing could be farther from the reality surrounding them, she leaves her house every day to talk to them about Jane Austen.  Old times’ skirmishes vs real war.  Read more: thesecretunderstandingofthehearts
