This beautifully crafted memoir tells the story of a woman who never gave up on her passion for France and the French language. Instead of regretting the path not taken, she leaves her comfortable life in California and embarks on an 8-month adventure in Provence. After a rocky start, Diane learns to trust her intuition. Through complicated family dynamics, she discovers her strength.
Her writing makes us feel the comfort of a tea shop on a winter day, the joy of finding an apartment with good light and a deep bathtub, and the way learning a language can reveal the culture of its people. Along the way, she discovers the essential kindness of the French. For those of us who never did that year abroad, this book lets us know it’s not too late.

Never Too Late!
