Surviving Provence a New Book on Life in Provence
Books on Provence · Guest Post · InspireSurviving Provence is a humorous account of the people (and animals) who share author Barbara Farber’s daily life in the South of France. It is a far cry, she explains, from an ode to lavender and sunflowers.
She writes: “Although my husband and I were both born in the United States, we have spent the greater part of our lives in Europe, mostly in The Netherlands. Leaving our working years and Amsterdam behind us, we settled into our huge white elephant of a house in Provence.
“Surviving Provence” this book is available in Aix-en-Provence at Book-in-Bar or on Amazon. It is a true tale of life in Provence, which includes no surprise stories about food and wine and a house. Enjoy!
