A House Somewhere: Ever the Optimist

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

3/3. When Chris Stewart wrote Driving Over Lemons about his life scratching a living on a poor farm on a Spanish hillside, his expectations were low, given that his previous ventures - including drumming for the rock group Genesis - left him destitute. Now his modesty seems misplaced: the book is a worldwide hit. Anthony Sattin asks whether he is still the optimist he once was.
