Toujours Provence

Author: Peter Mayle

Mayle’s enchanting sequel to “A Year in Provence” whisks readers back to sun-drenched southern France. With his trademark wit and keen eye for local color, he regales us with tales of truffle hunting, wine tasting, and village life. I found myself chuckling at his encounters with quirky neighbors and savoring his mouthwatering descriptions of Provençal cuisine. It’s a delightful escape that left me yearning to book a flight to France.

Provence is a country to which I am always returning, next week, next year, any day now.
