Customer Reviews

The book extols the joy of renting a French country house.

The book tells how the author and his wife spend three delightful weeks in a rented house in the old province of Gascony where on a clear day they can look out to the Pyrenees on the distant horizon. The book details the everyday pleasure they find in visiting historic sites, outdoor markets, and restaurants in a region blissfully off the beaten track of tourists and even French vacationers. Suzanne Kloman's recipes are interspersed throughout the text along with her useful tips on food shopping and housekeeping. The author's paintings are featured on the book flaps and in a special limited edition ($24.95) on color plates. Anyone seeking respite from the tourist throngs in Provence will find this book of special interest.
