The New York Times's book review is "charming, interesting and highly appreciated!" Find these books. Escape from the city, enjoy laziness and be a time thief in Provence! Every vacation is like going to complete official business, carrying all kinds of bags, and traveling around Europe heroically in five days, like a flock of ducks being driven away, taking a cursory look and running around. Perhaps only Provence, the only place in the world where I can live happily without doing anything, can make me shrink back. Here, time is not worshipped, and it has a unique meaning in an instant. Provence once, from the day it was born, Provence carefully kept her secret. It was not until the arrival of the Englishman Peter Mailer that the unique veil of Provence's long life was gradually unveiled. A few years ago, as an executive of an advertising company on Madison Avenue, peter mayle was tired of the busyness and glitz of the office building and took his wife and dog to bid farewell to foggy, long and gloomy London. He lived in seclusion in Provence in the south of France, where the sun was shining and the sky was blue. Mel bought the old house, studied French diligently, bid farewell to the past, lived leisurely and began his writing career. After a year in Provence, Provence forever, back in Provence, all his books related to Provence can't stay on The New York Times's bestseller list for a long time. In Peter Mailer's works, Provence is not only synonymous with region, but also a symbol of lifestyle. Urban people who have lived in crowded, busy, noisy, competitive and stressful conditions for many years have gained a lot of material enjoyment, but inadvertently lost their healthy bodies and quiet lives. With money and status, there is less bright and clear sunshine overhead and less freedom in my heart. Even if you "have money and leisure" to travel, I'm afraid you will come and go in a hurry and you can't indulge. Peter mayle's book is written for such an urbanite who seems to be full, but actually has been under a lot of pressure. Instead of teaching them how to deal with it, let them learn to escape happily. This set of books also includes: Provence for a year, Provence on the dining table, and related smells.
