About the Book

Overview

True to Life: Tales from an Ecovillage

by Andree Robert

After living in La Cite Ecologique for 36 years, author Andree Robert is ready to share her experience. She, who was there from the start.

In this candid account, Andree Robert – known as “Fleure” to the members of the community – relates the beginnings as well as the many setbacks experienced in this larger-than-life venture.

And “true to life”, Robert gives an honest account of life’s ups and downs from within the experience of living in an ecovillage. Her recollections, anecdotes, and insights go straight to the heart.

From within Robert’s tales, we ask ourselves: Can a caring society based on the values of selflessness exist and endure? And we discover that the passion for “changing the world” begins and ends within yourself. Get ready to experience tears and laughter in all their many hues!

Available in digital format only.

“This is my first exposure to intentional living situations. I thoroughly enjoyed learning about the possibilities and the underlying thinking that informs this kind of living choice. The presenters were excellent. It was great to see the different settings and to hear the various questions related to these three living situations. Thank you so much for this presentation.” -Leslie Slate
