Where in the world are you now?

A long-standing tradition, Where in the World Are You? is a place for you to share the setting of your current book in a witty one-liner. Try to incorporate the title and the locale.

For example:

Now seeking a Haven off the coast of Ireland. Have you heard the one about three monks in a boat?

I am in The Dragon Republic, a shadow of post-WWII China, plotting to overthrow the Empress.

I'm in London, about to suffer A Fairly Honourable Defeat at the hands of, to put it mildly, a scoundrel.

Who knew that it would be a French priest who would effect The Conquest of Plassans? My money was on a Rougon.

I'm following the popular Facebook posts of Cécé, a young woman who lives in a gang ridden and poverty stricken suburb of the Haitian capital of Port-au-Prince.

I'm in wintry rural Ireland, where relentless Snow is soaking through my flimsy shoes and covering up traces of a longtime human wreckage.

I've discovered The Twilight Zone of Pinochet's Chile has eerie resemblances to current America.

I seem to be jumping around the world this month (and moving in time as well) - started shuttling between England, USA, Nigeria and the Caribbean aboard Esperance, then hearing The Last Will and Testament of Senhor da Silva Araújo in Cabo Verde, before jumping on a ship to Brazil to make sure that Nothing Can Hurt You Now, back to Europe to investigate an An Inside Job all over Western Europe, off across the Atlantic again to check what may have been in El Salvador by exploring an Archive of Unknown Universes just to cross time and space again - back to the past in Europe first with a drink in The Grand Banks Café in 1930s France and then remembering even older times - the late 16th and early 17th century Denmark with The Wax Child with a stop in futuristic New York of 2061 to check if a team is still Bonded in Death.

Note to self - remember to post here more often - stringing these together is fun but...

I watch how the lights of Eiffel tower glimmer in The yellow eyes of crocodiles.

I am plodding through life on a coffee farm in, not OUT OF AFRICA.

From Chile, I travelled to The Hollow Land of Cumbria, England, and am now back in France pondering The Sin of Abbe Mouret.

I was in Spain before heading to “America” as an au pair by Singing to the Sun

After spending some time enjoying the Italian seaside with The Old Man by the Sea, I am now trying to survive the hot Burmese Days.

Life in Second Empire Paris is a big Pot Luck.

After leaving the jungles of Burma, I tiptoed around the Sleeping Children in rural France on my way to rural Mexico where The Dance and the Fire got too noisy so I took the first boat out to Japan to find out more about The Dilemmas of Working Women before landing in Spain where there is Only Smoke.

I'm crossing the Wide Sargasso Sea from Dominica to England with a very sad Creole woman and her very British husband.

I’m stuck on a train in a severe winter storm with Hanne Wilhelmsen, a retired police detective in Norway, staying at Finse 1222.

I Who Have Never Known Men am with forty other women in a bunker with no idea where I am or even if I am still on Earth.

I am in Truth Seeker following Zoroaster, one of the world's earliest thinkers as he searches for truth in Bronze Age Central Asia.

I'm in Russia in 1880, mourning The Death of Ivan Ilych.

I'm in South Korea, worrying that The Vegetarian may not survive.

I am scouring Rome with Uncle Maroje, looking for his spendthrift son. I am also in the remote island of Terzola, which is in Croatia (not that you'd know it: local people speak an Italian dialect, and seem uninterested in voting in Croatian elections, much to the dismay of The Eighth Commissioner).

Just back from San Francisco where Our Lady of Darkness tried to strangle me in my sleep, I think. And now I'm on my way to Iceland to find out if The Fish Can Sing.

I'm in the Colombian city of Medellín with Father Luis Córdoba, who tells me that Aside From My Heart, All Is Well.

I’m in London with Mary Poppins, this month’s selection for my great granddaughters family book club.
