Diplomatic Baggage
Brigid Keenan was a glamorous, successful young London fashion journalist. But falling in love with a diplomat saw her leave behind the gilt chairs of the Paris salons for a large chicken shed in the forests of Nepal.Thirty years later ( at the farewell party for the Papal Nuncio in Kazakhstan ) Brigid found herself wondering whether her decision has been the right one. This is her hilarious account of her life as a trailing spouse - and utterly engaging tale of diplomatic protocol, difficult teenagers, homesickness, frustrated career aspirations, witch doctors and giant jumping spiders.
