A Year in Provence by Peter Mayle - Popular Penguins Paperback Book | Perfect for Travel Enthusiasts & Francophiles | Great for Vacation Reading, Book Clubs & French Culture Lovers

Peter Mayle's A Year in Provence is the much-loved account of an English couple living their dream abroad. When they buy a 200-year-old farmhouse in the South of France, Peter Mayle and his wife little expect the delights that await them - from six-course lunches and epic games of boule, to encounters with charming but unpredictable builders. Both witty and affectionate, this is an idyllic portrait of the pleasures of rural life.
