"'Enchantingly told...I just couldn't put it down'" (France In Print)
"'Reading this utterly unputdownable account, it's easy to share the dream that drove the couple...We too could be living a life like theirs. And if we can't, this book is a highly diverting substitute'" (Amazon.co.uk)
"'Life in a Postcard is not just the author's account of the challenges of life in a small mountain community, but also a celebration of French Catalonia and the pleasures of Catalan cooking. I do not envy them one bit - but I did enjoy reading about life in the French Pyrenees in all its manifestations, in a comfortable armchair at home...as I am sure you will'" (Living France)
"'Offers some real flavour of the beauty of Catalonia and may actually inspire others to follow her path'" (What's On In London)
"'More diverse than the usual Brit transplant to that ideal place in France, Rosemary Bailey's account takes in monastic history and a marital situation which might paint a grin on the faces of the hipper reader...Sweet book'" (Time Out)
'I wake to the sun striking gold on a stone wall. If I lean out of the window I can see Mount Canigou newly iced with snow. It is wonderful to live in a building with windows all around, to see both sunrise and sunset, to be constantly aware of the passage of the sun and moon.'
In 1988, Rosemary Bailey and her husband were travelling in the French Pyrenees when they fell in love with, and subsequently bought, a ruined medieval monastery, surrounded by peach orchards and snow-capped peaks. Traces of the monks were everywhere, in the frescoed 13th century chapel, the buried crypt, the stone arches of the cloister.
For the next few years the couple visited Corbiac whenever they could, until in 1997, they took the plunge and moved from central London to rural France with their six-year-old son. Entirely reliant on their earnings as freelance writers, they put their Apple Macs in the room with the fewest leaks and sent Theo to the village school. With vision and determination they have restored the monastery to its former glory, testing their relationship and resolve to the limit, and finding unexpected inspiration in the place.
Life in a Postcard is not just Rosemary Bailey's enthralling account of the challenges of life in a small mountain community, but also a celebration of the rugged beauty of French Catalonia, the pleasures of Catalan cooking, and an exploration of an alternative, often magical world.. NOTA: El libro no está en español, sino en inglés.
