More than a decade ago Marita van der Vyver emigrated to France
where she married a Frenchman and settled in the scenic countryside
of Provence. Having become famous for a novel built on fairy tales,
her life resembles that of a princess meeting her Prince Charming.
Several bestsellers, much living and loving, and years later, they
move - to another French village called Place of Frogs. A Fountain
in France is a book of stories about moving the way the French do
it. It is also about place, what binds the heart to a home and its
people, about breaking ties to grow new ones and about what we take
with us when we move on. For Marita, life is an effervescent
fountain, always bubbling up new surprises. This book will be
enjoyed by anyone who has lived or travelled in a foreign country,
or wished they had. It touches on universal experiences shared by
expatriates all over the world. Whether you are based in Provence
or Perth, Bath or Beijing, you quickly learn that a good sense of
humour might be the most important qualification if you want to
survive being the eternal outsider.
