I first encountered Peter Mayle's writing after living in France myself, and reading A Year in Provence felt like the warm, dry winds of the area—a bresh of fresh air and a hug all at once. With this final book, Mayle explores what he's learned and grown to love about his adopted homeland—a homeland that loved him back, considering he received the Légion d’Honneur from the French government for his cultural contributions! —Emma

"This is how Paris was in the early days," Hemingway writes, "when we were very young and very happy." Written in his later years and published posthumously, this is a look back at his time in Paris in the '20s. Through a series of vignettes, you'll meet F. Scott Fitzgerald, Gertrude Stein, James Joyce, and many others. This is also an intimate portrait of a young writer with a young family in a dazzling place at a fascinating time. If you've never read Hemingway, you can start here—and if you've read all his other works, then you need to get to this one, too. —Julia S.
