Driving Over Lemons begins with Chris Stewart, a one-time Genesis drummer, turned sheep-shearer, turned bestselling writer as he sees an old peasant farm on the wrong side of the river in southern Spain, buying it at the drop of a hat. Except the incumbent farmer has no intention of leaving. And of course, there is the general lack of running water, electricity… and a bridge.

This bestselling book sees how Chris and his wife move to the farm, El Valero, having sunk all their savings into it, buy a flock of sheep and make running an Andalucian farm seem like a half-decent career move.

This Anniversary Edition includes an extensive author interview with Chris Stewart, bringing events up to date at El Valero.
