Book excerpt: When Jillian Schedneck takes up a position teaching English to a classroom of UAE students in Abu Dhabi, her culture shock is quickly replaced with the rush of a new life shuttling between the conservative society of the Emirates, and the party lifestyle of glittering Dubai just over the border. As she grows into herself among these shifting worlds, her sheltered students also come alive in the classroom as Jillian introduces them to writers such as Virginia Woolf, and feminism.
