Inhaltsangabe

In accordance with the venerable French saying "Jamais deux sans trois" Peter Mayle's new book completes his trilogy of life and strange doings in Provence. There are one or two pauses for refreshment in the course of the book, notably a rendezvous with the most succulent chicken in France, the Gauloise Blonde and a visit to the kitchens of a female chef who is successfully challenging the tradition that all great cooks are men. But there is life after lunch, and the reader will discover,among other curiosities, a school for noses in Haute-Provence, a religious ceremony dedicated to the truffle, and a crime passionel perpetrated on an oversexed butcher. Bon appetit!
