Where else does the sun shine three hundred days a year? Where else can you find true rosé—that taste of summer in your glass? Where else has goat cheese become a work of art? And where else can you find so many friendly, calm people who lead measured lives and avoid the modern habit of constantly rushing somewhere? The list is endless, but the answer is simple: Provence. This is a conviction not only of the Provençals themselves, but also of Peter Mayle, the author of renowned books about Provence, known throughout the world.
Peter Mayle moved to this paradise in the south of France from England with his wife. The couple bought a farmhouse and began a completely new life. Their first year in Provence was so rich in impressions that it inspired Peter Mayle to create a work that is still considered the best travel book about France. "A Year in Provence" brought the author recognition from the French Republic, which made Peter Mayle a Chevalier of the Legion of Honor. This book was followed by a whole series of other books about Provence, collected in this edition ("Provence Forever," "Another Year in Provence," and "My Twenty-Five Years in Provence"). The book also contains an insert with color photographs, including those from the author's archive.
