Seeking Provence Old Myths New Paths

the long version

"Writer Nicholas Woodsworth married into a Provencal family and has lived in the region for decades. He notes every facet and detail of life in Provence and provides a refreshing antidote to the rose and romantic view of it being a perennially sunny destination for tourists. The real Provencaux have always lived a hard life close to the land and the rhythms of the seasons. It is in the revelation of these lives that the truths of the real Provence are to be found."--BOOK JACKET.
