    A great book for a person short on time.
  

*by J***Z on Reviewed in the United States on April 12, 2007*

I picked up this copy of "A Good Year" at my local [...]. I bought it on a whim, not sure exactly why. It was relatively cheap which was a bonus. I set it down in my bedroom and never thought much more about it. Finally, one day, I was looking around for something to read and saw it. Being a little interested and seeing nothing else better at the time, I picked it up and started reading. Immediately, I was hooked. The writing style is on target. The pace is fast, but not hurried. There's no long periods of flash backs, detailed analysis of the furniture and a history of road construction in France. What the reader needs to know is relayed to him/her. What information is required to set the scene is provided. Anything else is left to the readers imagination. In other words, this book is perfect for the reader who is short on time, but still wants the privilige of enjoying a good story. Chapters are divided up into aproximately 10 minute blocks if I had to guess. I've not timed them, of course, but they're short and complete the scene. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a good story and doesn't have a lot of time to invest in a 500+ page epic novel. I may even rent the movie, who knows?

    Surpsingly a book to relax and enjoy
  

*by L***A on Reviewed in the United States on April 22, 2012*

As many others I wast dragged to this book by the film it inspired. And to my delight I discovered that the book was not adapted. I say this because many adaptatios fail to catch the spirit of the author's work. Not the case here.Although in the begining one might feel the prose a little sluggish by the end one can't deny the charm of "A good year". Not only it makes you feel like a holiday, it introduces a gamma of characters that are lovely (even though they are not deeply developed). As a matter of fact I would say the main character is the pass of time itself along with the enviroment of Provence.Every character is there just to justify the description of an event or place or gag about the French, English and American culture. Nevertheless you won't complain when you find yourself smiling at the incredibly ridiculus situations."A good year" leaves a good taste in the mouth (both from describing wines and a delicious tale). Unlinke many other books or stories there seems that nothing goes wrong, and even if it does that doesn't stress you out. A book that indeed feels like a holiday very much like the film.P.S. In this case there is no "the book is better" because each story is suited for the media it was produced for. A joy to read.

    Tres Bien!
  

*by T***T on Reviewed in the United States on July 8, 2022*

Read this again, after many years.  A delightful read, a gastronomic feast, and an ecological immersion, all at once.  Uncomplicated, pleasurable reading.  This book prompted to visit Provence for the first time, which has led a a fascination for the region and a deep longing for its scenery, food and culture.  There is no better start into Peter Mayle's other books than A Good Year.  A pleasure-filled, satisfying and easy read.  Bon voyage virtuel en provence.
