Too Hot to Talk to Peanuts: A Collection of Essays by Barbara Steele Knowles

Too Hot to Talk to Peanuts - A Collection of Essays is, as its name suggests, a series of short observations on a community shaped by the experience, and partly the philosophy, of an expatriate mother living in Saudi Arabia and Cyprus.
As we advance into the 21st century, perhaps this is a good time to pause and reflect before making irreversible mistakes. Should we take more steps to curb global population growth, protect the environment, and improve education?
From cold weather to standing in line, Barbara Steele Knowles voices a qualified opinion before the lens finally focuses on herself: a once-driven professional woman who now reflects and decides that multitasking is essentially a professional preoccupation and that perhaps there is, or should be, time to dream and reflect... and write.
