Meet Chris Stewart, the eternal optimist. He transports us to Las Alpujarras, and into a series of misadventures with an engaing mix of farmers, shepherds, New Age travellers and ex-pats. The hero of the piece, however, is El Valeron, the farm that Chris and his wife Ana bought - a patch of mountain studded...
with olive, almond and lemon groves, sited on the wrong side of a river, with no access road, water supply or electricity.
DRIVING OVER LEMONS is a funny, insightful account that makes running a peasant farm in Spain seem like a distinctly good move.
