Book Synopsis
Escape to Languedoc in this poignant and transportative true account of life in a beautifully restored house in the south of France

''What a wonderful book. Exquisitely written, it is by turns laugh-out-loud funny then suddenly, unexpectedly and profoundly moving... an utter joy and a treat to read from the first to last pages'' JAMES HOLLAND

''He writes with genuine emotion . . . He writes beautifully about life in a French village'' DAILY MAIL
