Book Description
En 1883, Daudet écrit dans La Nouvelle Revue : « Les premières Lettres de mon moulin ont paru vers 1866 dans un journal parisien où ces chroniques provençales, signées d'abord d'un double pseudonyme emprunté à Balzac, « Marie-Gaston » détonnaient avec un goût d'étrangeté. Gaston, c'était mon camarade Paul Arène qui, tout jeune, venait de débuter à l'Odéon par un petit acte étincelant d'esprit, de coloris, et vivait tout près de moi, à l'orée du bois de Meudon. Mais quoique ce parfait écrivain n'eût pas encore à son acquit Jean des Figues, ni Paris ingénu, ni tant de pages délicates et fermes, il avait déjà trop de vrai talent, une personnalité trop réelle pour se contenter longtemps de cet emploi d'aide-meunier. Je restai donc seul à moudre mes petites histoires, au caprice du vent, de l'heure, dans une existence terriblement agitée. »

Book Description
NATIONAL BESTSELLER • In this witty and warm-hearted account, Peter Mayle tells what it is like to realize a long-cherished dream and actually move into a 200-year-old stone farmhouse in the remote country of the Lubéron with his wife and two large dogs. He endures January's frosty mistral as it comes howling down the Rhône Valley, discovers the secrets of goat racing through the middle of town, and delights in the glorious regional cuisine. A Year in Provence transports us into all the earthy pleasures of Provençal life and lets us live vicariously at a tempo governed by seasons, not by days.

Book Description
Rough draughts of some of the following tales and essays were actually written during a residence in the Alhambra; others were subsequently added, founded on notes and observations made there. Care was taken to maintain local coloring and verisimilitude; so that the whole might present a faithful and living picture of that microcosm, that singular little world into which I had been fortuitously thrown; and about which the external world had a very imperfect idea. It was my endeavor scrupulously to depict its half Spanish, half Oriental character; its mixture of the heroic, the poetic, and the grotesque; to revive the traces of grace and beauty fast fading from its walls; to record the regal and chivalrous traditions concerning those who once trod its courts; and the whimsical and superstitious legends of the motley race now burrowing among its ruins.
