In excerpts from her letters and journal entries, Jean recounts stark choices involving life and death, as well as the challenges and joys of living in a small Arab desert village, learning to speak rudimentary Arabic, surviving isolation and being part of a team that opened a Women's Health Clinic in the remote outpost of Abs close to the Saudi Arabian border. She starts her journey feeling like an alien and ends it feeling a real affection and warmth towards the people of Yemen. She describes the austere beauty of Yemen, its culture, and people with eloquence and humor.
