The French Cure

Claire Murphy is a wild child who has managed to extend her twenties into her forties by never settling down to anything much at all. Running on instinct and a determined refusal to take on the shackles of conventional success--less out of conviction than out of the fear of being pinned down--Claire has eschewed marriage children and security in favor of travel affairs and a loosely-constructed freelance career. The French Cure charts Claire's inner and outer journey as she moves from California to Paris and then to rural France. The raw impulse to escape a soured relationship propels her travels but this time there is no escaping her confusion and pain. Licking her wounds she retreats to a part of the world still steeped in traditional values and simplicity and stays still long enough to figure out what really matters to her. It's not what you might think........
