Belatedly, let me say what a privilege it was to work on Looking For Tigers in helping prepare the book for publication. Caroline Jaine is an extremely accomplished writer (she’s extremely accomplished in several other fields, too) and one who deserves a much wider readership.
Looking For Tigers is a collection of fifteen short stories taken from her amazingly varied life, from rebellious teen to perceptive maturity. It’s a journey in mind and body, beautifully described in personal memory and anecdotes.
Never just a tourist, Caroline carries us with her from Bristol to India, from Bratislava to Botswana, from Sri Lanka to Iraq. Always insightful and entertaining and without ever taking herself too seriously.
