Peter Mayle's Toujours Provence continues to charm readers with its vivid depiction of Provence life. Praised for its humor and descriptive prose, it captures the region's essence beautifully. However, some find it repetitive and lacking the freshness of its predecessor. Overall, it's a delightful, light read that immerses readers in French countryside living.
