Produktinformationen zu „The Ambassador's Wife's Tale (ePub)“
Who really looks after British interests abroad? Behind the pomp of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, another powerful force is busily but discreetly propping up the image of UK Plc. For 28 years, Julia was a 'diplomatic spouse', juggling a growing family while supporting the demands of one of the great Offices of State. Sometimes hilarious, sometimes terrifying, she reveals the truth of the realities of life as an Ambassador's wife, ranging from food shortages to terrorist incidents to rubbing shoulders with the Queen, Mrs Thatcher and George Best - and rubbing knees with Mikhail Gorbachev. Light-hearted in style, The Ambassador's Wife Tale has a serious core message: that the diplomatic wife stands centre stage as the drama of world affairs unfolds.
Autoren-Porträt von Julia Miles
"When I was aged 10, I decided that I had to see everyone in the world at least once in my lifetime. I think that strange idea has remained with me and underpinned my life as a diplomat's wife, a social worker, a probation officer and now as a psychotherapist. I like meeting people. Oliver, the Ambassador's Wife's husband, and I enjoy family life enormously and are fortunate enough to have four children and 10 grandchildren who provide excitement and volatility to what might otherwise be a dull and tranquil existence. Oliver regularly appears in the media and consults on Middle Eastern affairs. We both enjoy music and play in a trio with a bassoonist. Otherwise life consists of friends, walking the dog, reading, and visiting our beloved Greece whenever we can."
