Résumé

Carol and her husband Michel, home after long and separate absences, look forward to spending the summer together on their beloved olive farm Appassionata. But a shocking blow leaves Carole alone, and the future uncertain. Feeling isolated and with no olives to harvest, Carole ventures beyond the farm to explore other aspects of Provençal life -from hunting to bee-keeping, the gypsies of the Camargue to the shepherds of southern Alps, the ancient language to the ever-present demand of family and friends. And ultimately, Provence's generous diversity -and Carol's own persistence in sharing it with those she loves -pave a path to joy.
