by Peter Mayle (Author)
From the moment Peter Mayle and his wife, Jennie, uprooted their lives in England and crossed the Channel permanently, they never looked back. Here the beloved author of A Year in Provence pays tribute to the most endearing and enduring aspects of his life in France--the charming and indelible parade of village life, the sheer beauty, the ancient history. He celebrates the caf and lists some of his favorites; identifies his favorite villages, restaurants, and open-air markets; and recounts his most memorable meals. A celebration of twenty-five years of Proven al living--of lessons learned and changes observed--with his final book Mayle has crafted a lasting love letter to his adopted home, marked by his signature warmth, wit, and humor.
