Let's hope that Angela becomes a favourite female writer of many readers. I have to admit that I hardly read books,I just don't have the time with my day job, the blogs and now setting up a travel social network.

What about Annie Hawes' books on Italy, especially the first one, "Extra Virgin" which tells the tale of her attempts to settle into a small olive farming village? Not only full of amazing insights into local culture and tradition, but utterly hilarious! And her most recent book, this one on North Africa - "A Handful of Honey" - blends great travel tales from friendly Muslim lands with the most penetrating and informative account I have yet come across of the growth of Islamic fundamentalism in the area, and ordinary local people's attitudes to it..... Pass it on! Anne Brown Hello Karen – great stuff, love the interview and your blog – but I was very sad to see that Angela has found no great woman travel writers to enjoy.
