Description

Emma Kennedy's memoir tells the story of her disastrous journey to the USA in 1989. With little more than pennies in their pockets, Emma and her friend Dee embark on a series of misadventures that test their survival skills and kindness of strangers. From California to New York, they face a string of bad luck, including snakes, earthquakes, and even a kidnapping by a sex-crazed midget in a Ferrari. Despite the odds against them, the pair manage to scrape together enough to make it back alive - with a tale to tell that's both astonishingly honest and ridiculously funny. A humorous and unflinching account of two young women's journey to the USA, I Left My Tent in San Francisco is a story of resilience and friendship.
