Dominique Browning has written an engaging memoir about losing her job and reinventing herself at mid-life. This theme keeps occuring in my own novels, and I couldn’t resist buying this book having loved Browning’s earlier memoirs about gardening. I used to subscribe to House and Garden Magazine just to read her monthly column. Slow Love is a lovely book filled with quiet wisdom, and while nothing “big” happens, the language is poetic and pulls you right into Browning’s story. Her writing is, as the French would say, seduisant, seductive!
