Items related to Diplomatic Incidents: The Memoirs of an (Un)diplomatic...
The hilariously and candid memoirs of an (un)diplomatic wife Cherry Denman offers her witty take on 25 years trailing husband Charlie, a UK diplomat, around some of the most farflung outposts of the world. Describing herself as a reluctant traveler, she shares adventurous tales of cultural collision, sparing herself no embarrassment. From wearing a gold lamé Mao suit at a diplomatic ball in China to catching her husband Charlie trying to escape out the bathroom window at a party, she relates one riotous, globetrotting escapade after another. Illustrated by Cherry's own wonderfully funny cartoons of diplomatic life, this is a collection of clever and very funny tales of global misunderstanding.

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Cherry Denman has spent her life trailing husband Charlie round some of the world's most remote outposts and can ask for the lavatory in eleven languages. While some aspects of living abroad will always puzzle her - saunas, tofu and circumcision, to name just three - she wouldn't have missed it for anything. Lessons learnt range from the practical (possessions belong either in the suitcase or the skip: storage is for wimps), to the truly useful (how to avoid the drinks party bore) and the truly bizarre (the episode with the goat . . .). Charming and witty, these hilarious tales of global misunderstsanding are illustrated with over seventy original line drawings. The candid memoirs of an (un)diplomatic wife Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9781848542433
