So I commend anyone who makes an effort to break through those walls. <br /><br />I will definitely check this out (and her travel blog as well.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3206029274559460902.post-74733799601270171552010-02-25T05:13:31.301-08:002010-02-25T05:13:31.301-08:00I listened to the audio back in the fall, and jump...I listened to the audio back in the fall, and jumped at the chance to read the (unabridged) print version. Isn't it a fantastic memoir?!<br /><br />If you haven't heard her speak, do a quick search on YouTube for some of Gilman's readings or interviews. Very cool to put the voice, cadence, spoken tone with the written tone.Dawn @ sheIsTooFondOfBookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09285873722005594325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3206029274559460902.post-75071717407476995042010-02-24T19:34:17.503-08:002010-02-24T19:34:17.503-08:00You and Dawn have convinced me I need to read this...You and Dawn have convinced me I need to read this. For some reason, when it first came out it didn't appeal.

Somehow work-related travel, no matter how interesting or exotic, just isn't the same!

You should know: I'm actually the reader, and it's abridged. (That said, it took a LONG time to record).<br /><br />Whether you read or listen to "Undress Me in the Temple of Heaven," please let me know what you think of it. It's a true story, and I'm curious to know how it comes across to people who didn't have to survive it with me!<br /><br />I can be reached at www.susanjanegilman.com<br />This also has a link to my travel blog, "A View from A Broad," in case you care to read about today's foreign (mis) adventures.Susan Jane Gilmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11940788589373548580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3206029274559460902.post-60566489527224465482010-02-23T04:13:47.058-08:002010-02-23T04:13:47.058-08:00This sounds like a great book!
