'Weaving a French An Australian story' is a sequel to Catherine’s memoir 'But you are in France, Madame.' Seven years have passed since Catherine returned to Australia with her family after their French adventure. Has she been able to close that emotional chapter or has turning the page led her straight back to France? Has Catherine’s affection for France grown or has her new beginning in Australia shaken her beliefs and allegiances—where does she belong? As Catherine grapples with questions and doubts about her future and struggles with self-confidence, she delves into the origins of her French connection and, in so doing, is reminded of where she has come from and who she is. 'Weaving a French Life' is not a template for French living. Rather, it demonstrates that a life adorned with French threads can be passionate and problematic, sensual and scarring, positive and perplexing … but at its heart, textured and colourful.July 2023 Release of a third book celebrating my French-Australian life.
