The celebrated author of The Olive Farm once again proves to be "a storyteller of great economy and deftness" in this memoir of life in the South of France (The Daily Telegraph).
A critically acclaimed actress and star of the BBC series All Things Great and Small, Carol Drinkwater embarked on a life-changing adventure when she bought an abandoned olive farm in Provence. She wrote of transforming her new home into a thriving, working farm in her memoir The Olive Farm.
Now, in The Olive Season, Carol is pregnant and their ever-loyal gardener is leaving to oversee the marriage of his son. Often unassisted, and with new challenges to face, Carol takes on the bulk of the farm work alone. Water is, as ever, a costly problem, and she goes in search of a diviner who promises almost magical results. But, as the harvest season approaches, dramatic events cast dark shadows of their olive farm.
