An Australian woman's journey through adversity and despair to self-discovery in a small French village.
Henrietta Taylor dreamed of a white wedding, a handsome husband and a house with a neat picket fence. But when her husband died of cancer, she was forced to reckon with being a single mother of two young children, with an unconventional Latin lover and a drifting, insecure future.
Alienated from friends and family, and with her two accommodating children in tow, Henrietta sets off on a voyage of self-discovery through Europe. In a small village in France she finds an unexpected new life for herself as the owner of several charming guest houses, and friendships she never expected.
Veuve Taylor is a refreshingly honest story about a fairytale gone wrong. Both poignant and entertaining, it documents with affection and humour one woman's emotional journey through bereavement, adversity and reinvention.
