Book Description
In his most delightful foray into the wonders of Provençal life, Peter Mayle returns to France and puts behind him cholesterol worries, shopping by phone, California wines, and other concerns that plagued him after too much time away. In Encore Provence, Mayle gives us a glimpse into the secrets of the truffle trade, a parfumerie lesson on the delicacies of scent, an exploration of the genetic effects of 2,000 years of foie gras, and a small-town murder mystery that reads like the best fiction. Here, too, are Mayle's latest tips on where to find the best honey, cheese, or chambre d'hìte the region has to offer. Lyric, insightful, sparkling with detail, Encore Provence brings us a land where the smell of thyme in the fields or the glory of a leisurely lunch is no less than inspiring.

Book Description
This volume brings together two delightful books—Map of Another Town and A Considerable Town—by one of our most beloved food and travel writers. In her inimitable style, here M.F.K. Fisher tells the stories—and reveals the secrets—of two quintessential French cities. Map of Another Town, Fisher’s memoir of the French provincial capital of Aix-en-Provence is, as the author tells us, “my picture, my map, of a place and therefore of myself,” and a vibrant and perceptive profile of the kinship between a person and a place. Then, in A Considerable Town, she scans the centuries to reveal the ancient sources that clarify the Marseille of today and the indestructible nature of its people, and in so doing weaves a delightful journey filtered through the senses of a profound writer.

Book Description
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.

Book Description
It starts with a single bomb, a vehicle IED that devastates Whitehall, the signal for hostilities to begin. As night falls, enemy paratroopers drop onto the Mall, their target, the British Prime Minister. As the capitals of Europe fall like dominoes, the caliphate war machine engulfs England. What remains of the UK’s armed forces head north, to an ancient border, where they must arm up, dig deep and prepare for the toughest battle of their lives, one that will mark the beginning of a far larger and more dangerous conflict. The INVASION UK SERIES takes readers on an adrenaline-fuelled, action-packed journey across a world plunged into global conflict. From the war-torn streets of London to the ice-capped mountains of the Himalayas, from the corridors of power in Washington DC to the marble palaces of a transformed Baghdad, the battle for political, military and ideological supremacy will sweep across the globe.

Book Description
An anthology of late Irish Times columnist Brendan McWilliams's best-loved columns, which were published daily for almost two decades. Compiled by his wife, Anne, it cuts a wide cross-section through the subjects that most captured his imagination – everything from the role of meteorology in shaping the world around us – to the place of weather in history and ancient mythology. Indeed, nowhere was Brendan's voice more articulate then in his Weather Eye column, which became for him a daily opportunity to express his passions with verve and creativity.
