内容简介:
First lady, Carol Walters is in exile in Europe traveling with her son Andrew who helped her escape from the clutches of her husband's administration after they discovered that she was divorcing her husband in a contentious election year. Together they drive to Paris where she spends her days sightseeing in the city of her dreams and Andrew meets a young woman at the Sorbonne. When Carol realizes that she is being watched by the CIA, she and Claude decide it is time for her to leave Paris and she travels with him to his palatial winery on the coast of France. This is a riveting account of this first lady's odyssey in an ever changing world. The book is a cross cultural study of American verses Middle Eastern values and brings to the forefront some of the history of Muslims in Iraq, the site of the beginning of civilization.
