would you like a copy of my new book, 'french essence: ambience, beauty and style in provence'?...


It has seemed like an eternity to wait but I am very pleased to be able to say that my new book, with photographs by the superbly talented Carla Coulson, will be available at the end of next week in the United States. It is an exciting moment for any author to have a book published and to be doubly fortunate to publish not only in Australia but in America ...well that is the icing on the cake. 

I can only say that, FRENCH ESSENCE: AMBIENCE, BEAUTY and STYLE in PROVENCE, (the blog was named after the book) was a labour of love. My words come very much from the heart and Carla's photographs express my passion for all things French and my deep love for Provence. Over the next week I would like to show you some of my very favourite images and tell you why they mean so much to me.

Penguin US have generously given me some copies to give you and I can think of nothing that would make me happier. Please leave me a comment, become a follower or a subscriber to this blog - all existing readers are automatically included. I will announce the winners on the 11 November, the day that FRENCH ESSENCE is published. If you aren't feeling lucky or you just can't wait, you can always pre-order your copy HERE. xv

the new us book cover is a compilation of photographs taken by carla
