"A celebration of food, nature and the spirit in this lyrical memoir where second chances create an opportunity for healing."
River Faire returns to England from America to help his ex-partner recover from a serious illness. Stepping back into his old life offers a second chance at connection, one that with some benefits from hindsight allows the couple to take steps towards a brighter future this time around.
In the acknowledgements River mentioned this memoir is six years in the making and I think that the time spent finessing the narrative has paid off. Everything is described with an artist’s keen eye for detail, whether it’s an experience of nature or the preparation of a meal. The lyrical and almost meditative storytelling draws you into the moment as though it were a work of fiction. There are ups and downs and challenges faced by River and Robert throughout Where Two Worlds Touch but overall I found this to be a really peaceful and charming narrative about embracing the unknown and new opportunities and trusting your intuition.
