Chris Mabey (Author)
I am emeritus professor at Middlesex University, London, specialising in leadership development. As a chartered psychologist, my recent books observe life from unique angles: 20th-century Myanmar through the eyes of a Burmese family; bible stories from the perspective of the stones present, and just published, a light-hearted collision with rural Provence. I live in the UK with my wife April and we love gathering with the extended family in France each summer Read more about this authorRead less about this author

DREAMING IN PROVENCEThe dream of buying a farmhouse in northern Provence takes us on a light-hearted rollercoaster of neighbor conflict, dentist visits, deportation by border police, wine harvests, tennis exploits, a Renoir-style wedding, colliding particles, and Kafka-esque visa controls. Only glimpsed at the time, it was like my collisions with a unfamiliar culture were gently tutoring me on a different kind of foreign land, that described by Jesus as 'kingdom'.

Slowly, I found myself dreaming about heaven on earth:talking less, listening, and loitering moreappreciating 'different’ etiquetterolling with the rhythms of rural lifedealing with ‘false friends’ and enjoying new onesseeing the virtue of not always winningdiscovering what really matters, and what really doesn’t……. I might have learned these lessons anywhere.

It could have been in Finchley or Philadelphia, but it turned out to be among the lavender fields of France. .
