Description
This evocative memoir recounts three formative years spent in Dijon on the eve of World War II, immersing readers in the rhythms, customs, and character of provincial France. Through vivid portraits of friends, acquaintances, and local personalities, it captures a vanished world shaped by food, hospitality, tradition, and looming historical change. Richly observant and warmly personal, the narrative blends travel writing, cultural history, and culinary reflection with an intimate portrait of place and belonging.
