Storyteller
Storyteller | Zoe Daniel
1 post | 2 read | 2 to read
A foreign correspondent's memoir like no other ... Zoe Daniel is the ABC's fifteenth South East Asia Correspondent, and one of only a handful of women to combine one of the most dangerous jobs in the world with one of the most demanding - motherhood.From the political unrest in Bangkok and the bittersweet story of conjoined twins in India, to a tragic plane crash in Laos and the destruction of typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines, Storyteller is a frank and brave memoir, as much about the events that capture our attention as it is about a personal story of the universal juggle of work, ambition and family amid the unpredictability of life and the predictability of the 24/7 media cycle. Storyteller is a timely reminder of the bravery and audacity of the men and women who bring us the news - the journalists, the local 'fixers', the cameramen - but above all it is a tribute to ordinary people who find themselves eyewitnesses to the extraordinary.

I watch and listen to this amazing woman most days. She is now in the USA and pops up all over the place. I really enjoyed reading this book. She is a great storyteller. The things she has seen and the places she has been and the things she has done. Just amazing. Published in 2014 it‘s a reminder of news past and how something‘s haven‘t changed much in parts of the world. Sad, uplifting, and in parts funny.
