The Street of Good Fortune is the compelling memoir of Iranian-Canadian Maryam Manteghi who goes to Bosnia in the early 2000s to follow in the footsteps of her then heroine, Christiane Amanpour. When she is diagnosed with breast-cancer at the age of just 34 her world spins out of control, propelling her to a new life, a new city and even a new heroine; the stylish and sexy Kyle Minogue. Humorous, witty and light-hearted, this memoir is more than a cancer-diary. It's the story of the little triumphs that make up a woman's journey from strength to strength.
Simpatična knjiga. Lako se čita. Dopao mi se pogled na anše prostore iz persketive jedne strankinje. Ali manje više to je sve. Lepa kjiga za opuštanje.
The author, a young woman affected by breast cancer, writes her memoir like good fiction. She takes the reader across the world and tenderly shows the impact of culture and family when illness is added to a person's life.
