The work is set in chapters/letters sent by Violet Shamash, a Jewish woman born in Baghdad at the beginning of the twentieth century, to her daughter Mira and her son-in-law, the British journalist Tony Roca. She included in it her testimony about the era in which she lived, as well as many stories, anecdotes and jokes, in addition to an accurate description of the rituals of Jewish holidays and methods of preparing traditional foods, and the features of clothing and the changes that occurred in it during that pivotal period that witnessed the modernization of the lives of the people of Baghdad after the British took over and installed Faisal I as King of Iraq.
