Sarah lands in Mexico City with a backpack, a month, and not a word of Spanish. From a small hostel in the capital to Oaxaca and the Pacific coast, each lesson is a scene from her trip: the people she meets, and what she has to say to them.

Sarah didn't get on the plane home. She goes back to Oaxaca, moves in with Valeria's family and volunteers at the neighbourhood clinic: two months of living in Spanish, from the rainy season to the Day of the Dead.

Before her new job in Oaxaca begins, Sarah spends two months in the Yucatan. A guesthouse in Merida, a road trip with a new friend from Monterrey, cenotes, pyramids and flamingos, and Christmas and New Year with people who became family.

Sarah is no longer a traveller. A nurse at the clinic in Oaxaca, she gets a work permit, a flat of her own and a crooked bookcase, visits Camila in Chiapas, and has to decide whether to go back to Boston. Learn to say what you want, hope, doubt and wish, and what you would do if things were different.

Sarah's first summer as a resident of Oaxaca: a first birth, the midwife course, her parents' visit, the Guelaguetza, a storm on the coast with Mateo, Camila's new cafe and Valeria's engagement. Learn every way to talk about the past, and about what might have been: if I had known, I wish I had, as if it had been.

Sarah and Julian start a year in Seville: a landlady who knows everyone, a hospital where midwives are called matronas, a 300-year-old letter in the Archive, tapas at ten at night and a proposal on New Year's Eve. Learn the Spanish of Spain: vosotros, vale, the words that change, and the accent of Seville.

Spring in Seville: the Three Kings, a strike that nearly keeps Sarah from Valeria's baby, a hospital scare for Encarna, the choice of where to marry, Holy Week and the April Fair. Learn to warn, weigh up and set conditions, describe with every sense, and talk like a Sevillian, filler words and all.

From the first heat of a Seville summer to a wedding in Teotitlan: a book deal, Rosario's last shift, a student of Sarah's own, Encarna's first flight, and the Sevillians in Oaxaca, where it's their turn not to understand the Spanish. Learn to report, wish, set conditions, disagree politely, and make a speech, and a promise.

Sarah and Julian's first six months as a married couple in Seville, from the Three Kings to midsummer: a ministry, night shifts, a float in Holy Week, a book launch, a neighbours' meeting, a night in A and E, and Lucia and Pablo's wedding. Sound like someone who lives in Spanish, with sayings, irony, hedging and the speech of Seville.
