A lush, evocative, debut novel set in Provence about the people who grow up and live and remain in two tiny neighboring villages—from the Nazi occupation to the present day—in particular, one man and one woman who have yet to find love. In the south of France farm life unfolds with the rhythm of the seasons. But the lives of these villagers in Amour Provence reflect the reality that the midi is a place of extremes, the summers of unbearable heat and the winters that are often rude and harsh. Like the climate, the characters find themselves swept away by storms of unannounced and devastating intensity. A vintner’s adolescent son has a passionate romance with his schoolmate’s mother and they suffer different and enduring consequences. A young Arab woman forced into an arranged marriage, learns that life in the land of Liberté and Egalité can be just as confining as in her own country. A French woman who has lived abroad for many years returns home and discovers that certain members of her family are not pleased to have her back. An unexpected encounter with his past brings new sparks of life to a man who believed he had lost everything, including the only woman he ever loved. In these two small adjacent villages in the South of France, characters lead lives that overlap and intertwine. Many are close neighbors who have known each other from childhood, linked by ancestors who clung for centuries to their patrimony, the land, which had always been poor, but is now a source of wealth drawn from wine, olives, and tourists. They know a great deal about each other’s hidden passions and weaknesses. Age-old resentments and closely guarded secrets retain their hold but are never to be discussed. Amour Provence is a portrait of lives deeply lived, shadowed by the past, against the backdrop of a region and a nation gripped by change.

"I scan the terraces, planted with row upon row of ancient olive trees. It is April, late spring. Here in the hills behind the Cote d'Azur the olive groves are delicately blossomed, with their tiny, white-forked flowers. Beyond them, perched halfway up the slope of the hill, our belle epoque villa comes into view. Abounding in balustrade terraces, nestling among cedars and palms, facing out at a south-westerly angle, overlooking the bay of Cannes towards the sun-kissed Mediterranean, there it is, Appassionata, awaiting us..." THE OLIVE FARM told how Carol Drinkwater and partner Michel fell in love with and bought an abandoned Provencal olive farm. Now, in THE OLIVE SEASON, Carol is pregnant and their ever-loyal gardener is leaving to oversee the marriage of his son. Often unassisted, and with new challenges to face, Carol takes on the bulk of the farm work alone. Water is, as ever, a costly problem, and she goes in search of a diviner who promises almost magical results. But, as the harvest season approaches, dramatic events cast dark shadows of their olive farm.

Adrift and lonely, Lily Greene travels to Provence to spend the summer with her aunt in the sunny south of France. In the vibrant city of Avignon, she meets Ludo and Auguste, two expert fencers who are also local actors performing in the upcoming Festival of Theater where they will present the classical tragedy, Cyrano de Bergerac. When Lily joins their thespian troupe, portraying the lead female role, she discovers that real life mirrors the play they are rehearsing, for--just as Cyrano and Christian vie for Roxane-- Ludo and Auguste become intense rivals for Lily. Handsome as a Hollywood movie star, Auguste is used to women falling into his bed. But when Lily spurns his amorous advances, drawn instead to the enigmatic Ludo, jealousy drives Auguste to seek revenge. Will tragedy strike with a cruel twist of fate? Or will love triumph with Amour in Avignon?

In een charmant Frans bergdorpje gaan de bewoners in verzet. Het postkantoor in Fogas is helemaal afgebrand. Véronique, de postjuffrouw, hoopt dat het zo snel mogelijk heropend zal worden. Maar de eigenzinnige dorpsbewoners hebben het veel te druk om haar te helpen. Burgemeester Papon heeft zijn joie de vivre verloren. Zelfs de dorpspolitiek laat hem koud. En het lijkt erop dat locoburgemeester Christian (die een oogje heeft op Véronique) zijn boerderij moet verkopen. Dan is er nog een fel omstreden plan uit Parijs om beren te herintroduceren in het gebied. Het wordt de dorpsbewoners allemaal te veel. Ze gaan in verzet. Zelfs de heilige Tour de France moet eraan geloven! Tour d'amour: het zelfstandig te lezen vervolg op Met de Franse slag en De dorpswinkel van Madame Josette. In de bestsellertraditie van Joanne Harris' Chocolat en Peter Mayles Een jaar in de Provence. Julia Stagg woonde zes jaar in het Zuid-Franse departement Ariège aan de voet van de Pyreneeën, waar ze een kleine 'auberge' runde en het als haar plicht voelde de Fransen ervan te overtuigen dat sommige Engelsen wel degelijk kunnen koken. Nu verdeelt ze haar tijd tussen de Yorkshire Dales en de Pyreneeën. 'Leuk! Vanaf bladzijde één word je meegenomen naar het dorpsplein van Fogas.' - Cosmopolitan 'Heerlijk vlot geschreven met een spannend einde. Neem er de tijd voor onder het genot van een lekker glas (liefst Franse) wijn.' - The Sword.nl over De dorpswinkel van Madame Josette Tour d'amour
