From the Lonely Planet Journeys series.
Annie Caulfield paints a revealing portrait of contemporary Jordan - intimately framed by a compelling love story.
Her travels take her into the heart of the country, from legendary Petra to the desert castles of the Crusades. She shares the tent life of traditional women, explores the hustle of downtown Amman, befriends nomads, refugees, artists . . . and falls in love with a Bedouin with film-star looks.
'Kingdom of the Film Stars' deftly unpicks tight-woven Western myths about the Arab world - and tells the story of a cross-cultural love affair with honesty and humour.
