A Year In Provence
I read this book like 6 years ago that a friend recommended I read before our trip to France, Provence. I returned her copy after the trip, so I wanted to have my own copy so I could read it again to bring back memories of the trip. Cant wait to read it again to be taken back, again. Fun read.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Fun escape to France
Enjoyable read. It made me feel like I was living in Provence along with the author. He has a great way of telling tales to bring them to life.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

I want another year in Provence.
Always charming and at times hilarious, Peter Mayle invites us into his life in Southern, rural France to experience the local culture and the idiosyncrasies of the colorful people. I loved this book and will soon start on the sequel Encore Provence. Hopefully, it will be as good.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
