- About the Book
-
Whatever happens to me here, my understanding of it will be incomplete. Jokes, stories, events, decisions — like so many things in this part of the world — remain open-ended, intertwined like the encircled and encircling chambers of the thousand and one tales …
Into the Wadi is the compelling and intensely personal story of an Australian woman and the Jordanian family into which she marries. In a deeply engaging style — sensuous, accessible and thoughtful — Michèle Drouart writes about marriage, female friendship, and the preciousness of culture and community.
