Synopsis

Wall Street Journal Top 10 & New York Times bestseller
A true story of expat life in the Middle East.

Reluctantly leaving their quiet Spanish mountain village, Vicky and Joe head to Bahrain for a year teaching abroad. It should be a simple adventure. Instead, they arrive as civil war erupts. Suddenly, their year of expat life in Bahrain turns into an extraordinary journey through political unrest, cultural surprises and events making world headlines. Between lively Arab students, eccentric teachers, unexpected friendships and a spell under house arrest, nothing goes according to plan.

Perfect for anyone considering moving to the Middle East or teaching abroad.

Biographie de l'auteur

Victoria Twead is a New York Times bestselling author. In 2004 she nagged poor, long-suffering Joe into leaving Britain and relocating to a tiny, remote mountain village in Andalucía, where they became reluctant chicken farmers and owned the most dangerous cockerel in Spain. Village life inspired Victoria’s first book, Chickens, Mules and Two Old Fools, which was quickly followed by more in the Old Fools series, all of which fast became Amazon bestsellers. Victoria and Joe continue to enjoy life keeping chickens, writing, sampling the local wine and living alongside their colourful neighbours.

Présentation de l'éditeur

*New York Times Bestseller* In this, the third of the Old Fools Trilogy, Vicky and Joe leave their Spanish mountain village to work for a year in the Middle East. How could they know that the Arab Spring was poised to erupt, throwing them into violent events that would make world headlines? Teaching Arab kids, working with crazy teachers, forming life-long friendships and being placed under house arrest, Vicky and Joe laugh and lurch through their year in Bahrain. With grateful thanks to Nadia Sawalha for the wonderful Arabic recipes.
