‘France has the only two things toward which we drift as we grow
older – intelligence and good manners.’ F. Scott Fitzgerald La
Vie est Belle is the perfect gift for Francophiles or those
with a passion for the best things in life – elegant interiors,
ageless beauty and fine food and wine. This celebration and
distillation of the spirit of France provides a privileged glimpse
inside 18 ravishing French homes, from chateaux to farmhouses, as
well as the regions in which they are set, including Normandy,
Brittany, the Ile de Ré, Paris, Provence, the Loire and Bordeaux.
The book also features insightful essays on the traditions and
characteristics of French life, including pavement cafés,
vineyards, classic French furniture and fabrics, regional food
specialities and more. Interspersed throughout the book are recipes
for authentic French dishes and quotations from great writers and
philosophers, designed to immerse you in the culture and ambience
of the French way of life.
