Daul Hogarth's superb watercolours bring vividly alive the chanting landscape and eccentric charm of life in Provence. This is a fascinating collaboration between a wonderful writer and a great artist.
When Peter Mayle fled grey London for Provençal sunshine and bought an ancient
farmhouse in the Lubéron mountains, pastoral dreams were disrupted by the year's round of icy mistrals, demanding visitors, ruinous floods and absentee builders. He soon realized that the only thing to be relied on was lunch, with military regularity at midday. And so, like the perfect host, Peter Mayle entertains us to course after course of comic characters, bizarre events and gastronomic delights.
