First of all, do not start reading this book if you are on diet or if you haven't eat enought for lunch or dinner. Even in this case, anyway, you will want to taste all the wonderful dishes the author and his wife try in the whole book! I loved it completely, and all I want to do now is to go and visit Provence, and I am almost ashamed to know that it is really close to Italy but I haven't been there yet! Anyway, I found myself laughing while reading this book. The author has a real gift for narration and it is something you read and feel is real, not the usual tourist narration about a place not explored enough. Sometimes, this wonderful region of France and the behaviour of the inhabitants reminded me of Italians, always ready to sit in front a full plate and with a glass of wine to enjoy life.

A wonderful year, spent in a place that offers good wine and tasty food is what everybody would have at least once in life. For each month passing you could find several habits, recipes and moods from the part of France that probably is closest to Italy. After reading this book you'll try to leave your country if it hasn't food&wine traditions (or you'll apreciate your spanish or italian origins if you have them).
People from Provence, in this book, are rough but kind, easy but troubled but know hot to enjoy life.
