Inside I am home.

A peek at pages 2 and 3. Imagine me reading these pages in the wee hours in early May at a European Writers’ party in Madrid while accompanied on guitar with French street music. It was the first time I read the book aloud to an audience and it was a joy.

I am home. on the Mediterranean.

This reader on the #mediterranean loves, like many other readers, the pace and clip and love and life on these #pages.

I am home. in Paris.

I am home. in Paris with Patricia! The book opens in Paris 🎠 Patricia finds the book #inspiring #lyrical and #poetic and enjoys the constant presence of nature in its pages. She honors it by calling this #remembrance a pastoral #masterpiece!

“Friend and author Marianne Maili’s I am home. is a page-turner and inspirational in describing both her life and the accessible pleasures open to us all if we are mindful enough to accept life’s gifts sprinkled among its challenges. Her lyrical and poetic depictions of nature–constantly present on the pages–place Maili’s memoir among pastoral as well as memoir masterpieces. Her previous award-winning novel, Lucy, go see. is also a must-read.”
