Hillary Rohde has lived the kind of life not often found outside of fiction; a life which seems to have had a bit of every genre all rolled into one single incredible and fantastic tale. Over the years she’s journeyed to the far corners of the globe—from the United States to the People’s Republic of China and from the southern tip of Africa to the northern reaches of Great Britain. She’s traveled by horse and cart with gypsies, studied art in London, escaped mercenaries in Fernando Po, lived it up like a rock star in Mick Jagger’s country house, and fallen in love with an American in Scotland along the way—all while on the road to becoming an exceptionally successful business woman at the head of knitwear company. Interspersed with letters home and to old friends, Hillary’s fluent and vivid prose relays her emotional response to her amazing adventures as they unfold, providing an internal dialogue as intimate as a diary that is at times wonderfully funny and bitterly poignant.
