A Year in Provence

by Peter Mayle
A Year in Provence
A Year in Provence

Idyllic French countryside life, humorous culture exploration.

If you're dreaming of a getaway to the sun-soaked vineyards and quaint villages of southern France, "A Year in Provence" may just be your ticket. Peter Mayle's witty and vivid storytelling will transport you there, offering laughter and a charming glimpse into the good life en Provence. It's escapism at its best, with a glass of wine in hand.

  • Prix des libraires du Québec for Lauréats hors Québec (1995)
