The Street of Good Fortune is the compelling memoir of Iranian-Canadian Maryam Manteghi who goes to Bosnia in the early 2000s to follow in the footsteps of her then heroine, Christiane Amanpour. When she is diagnosed with breast-cancer at the age of just 34 her world spins out of control, propelling her to a new life, a new city and even a new heroine; the stylish and sexy Kyle Minogue. Humorous, witty and light-hearted, this memoir is more than a cancer-diary. It's the story of the little triumphs that make up a woman's journey from strength to strength.
