Description

Lawrence Durrell's final book is a captivating blend of travelogue, poet's notebook, and intimate autobiography that explores his life in Provence. With vivid descriptions of the region's landscapes and rich layers of human history, Durrell guides us through stories of magic, mythology, Roman conquest, and courtly love.

From the rolling vineyards to the wounded blue skies, Durrell weaves a spellbinding narrative that casts a deep impression on the reader. With masterful prose, he shares his most evocative memories of life as a local in Southern France, creating a treasured memoir that will linger long after finishing the book.
