From childhood dreams of escaping the family car to adult adventures across the globe, Isabel Huggan's narrative is a delightful exploration of belonging. It centers on an old stone house in the Cevennes mountains of France, where Huggan shares her experiences of adapting to a new country and language in middle age.
