The Travels and Travails of Stella Bellamy

By Barbara Schreiner

Stella Bellamy is contemporary, middle-aged, chubby, grumpy, single and very funny. She has learned that when life gives you lemons, forget making lemonade: drink gin and tonic. Clutching a gin in one hand and an acerbic and hilarious sense of humour in the other, she travels to fascinating places, experiencing the modern world and learning about ancient history, while exploring her own emotional journey through life. Whether in foreign airports or hotels, aeroplanes, tuk-tuks or crumbling taxis, or the comfort of her own home, Stella provides a poignant yet funny view of a diverse and colourful world. Stella revisits her complex emotional past and present, from her teenage relationship with a friend of her father's, her fear of intimacy, to her relationship with her dying mother from hell. Stella takes the reader on a funny, fascinating and fabulous journry.
