Отново Прованс
“Отново Прованс” е последната част от трилогията на Питър Мейл, посветена на живота, нравите и особеностите на един от най-привлекателните региони на Франция.

Посещава и нетрадиционно училище по парфюмерия, впуска се в експедиция за издирването на съвършения тирбушон, планира да си засади собствена маслинова горичка и изследва тайната на провансалското дълголетие.

"Ceea ce face ca viața de scriitor să fie demnă de trăit este satisfacția de a descoperi că ai reușit să oferi câteva ore agreabile unor oameni pe care nu-i cunoști."

This reads more like a Provence guidebook and less like a memoir. It has nice weight and heft after the insubstantial stories in Toujours Provence and has the same charming competent humorous writing style as A Year in Provence.
I liked this book because I can see his journalistic tendencies more clearly. I enjoy the way he chases down a story and the lengths to which he’ll go to follow up on interesting possibilities like the perfumery school for blind children, the processing of olive oil and the perfect corkscrew. I maintain that I’d like to know him and hang out with him in Provence – as it seems many other readers have wanted over the years – and even more than that, I’d love a life like his.

O carte dezamăgitoare! Mult mai slabă decât "Un an în Provence".

Enjoyable, Mayle in good form. Having read his previous books some years ago it's nice to revisit the dusty roads of Provence and rekindle dormant daydreams.

Written eleven years after A Year in Provence, Encore Provence continues Peter Mayle’s fascination with this delightfully sunny corner of France. In this book, Mayle (who, if you’re unfamiliar with his Provence books, moved along with his wife from England to Provence after chucking up a career in advertising) discusses—with his inimitable sense of humour and his obvious affection for Provence and its people—all things Provence, from the people to the laws, the land and its produce, the fabulous food. The wine. The perfumes. The lavender, the knives.
There’s a chapter on the longevity of the average native of Provence, and how (possibly? Mayle never does find out) foie gras might contribute. There are Mayle’s observations on what comprises the ‘ideal’ Provençale village. There are fascinating, personal, and informative chapters on the selling and buying of truffles; on olives and olive oil; on the making and mixing of perfumes (not to mention what goes into developing a perfumer’s nose, and a description of a day spent at an amazing ‘school’ where blind teenagers are taught to smell). From kitchen gardens to handy (and restrained) lists of some of the best food markets, restaurants, and vineyards in Provence—Mayle covers it all.
And how. A meal at the L’Auberge de La Môle is so lovingly described, just reading it made my mouth water. There are descriptions, fleeting and occasional, of truffle omelettes, of bread dipped in fragrant olive oil, of bouillabaisse made the Marseille way.
Plus, there’s Mayle’s humour. “Let a Frenchman loose in the great outdoors, and the first thing he’ll want to do is organize it; then he will see if there are ways of eating it.” for instance, in the final chapter, which is all about kitchen gardens. And “…a London restaurant’s attempt to justify the exorbitant price of its whitebait: “The tiny fresh fish are tossed by our chef for a few fleeting seconds into a bath of boiling oil, and then removed before they have had a chance to recover from their surprise.” Anyone who suggests tossing the writer in after them has my full support.”
I began reading this book because I’ve had the bad luck to have just read a series of bad books. I was pretty certain that a Mayle Provence book would be therapeutic. It was.

For it's genre, this is a great book. I'm a big fan of books where not much has to happen. I read the first of this series, "A Year in Provence," at least five years ago and really enjoyed it. It's the French equivalent of "Under the Tuscan Sun." Stumbled across two of his follow-ups at a rummage sale at preschool and snapped them up. This book was interesting, informative, witty and even laugh-out-loud funny at times. Peter Mayle thinks a great deal about food - where it comes from, how to get it, how to cook it, how it tastes, etc. A good deal of the book is devoted to variations on his food theme. This is one of those books that I would categorize as extremely pleasant - an antidote to the real world.

I really liked the first two books. This one is so boring I could hardly get through it. Peter Mayle needs to find a new topic to write about because this one is tired. I think the difference is that in the first two books he wrote about things that happened to him, but in this book, he is doing research and trying to find stories and things to happen to him. This one is heading to the giveaway pile.

Oh my, give me another book by Peter Mayle please. This is a revisit to a lovely place that the author loved. Provence - truffles, vineyards, olives. Virtually meeting those lovely people who love wine, gardening and food. A place where peace and quiet still reigns.

The third and last of his Provence memoirs, and second only to the original, I think. The book is a series of short essays on this and that -- all are about life in Provence, and all are light and entertaining. A fine bedside book, to read one or two at a time, or at least that's what I did. Recommended, especially for Francophiles and Mayle fans. If you somehow missed reading it (as I had), you are in for a treat. Mayle passed away in 2018, in his beloved Provence.

Настолько аппетитно, что хочется намазать на ломоть деревенского хлеба и запить бокалом хорошего вина!

Това , което ми липсва в книгите на Питър Мейл е пряката реч. Много изкусен разказвач е , но наистина , разказаното е повече описателно и малко омръзва. Може би , ако някой реши да го последва и да види с очите си всичко описано, ще му бъде много полезна срещата с автора. Всяко нещо е видяно в детайли и описано по неповторим начин.
Америка , видяна през неговата призма е бонус , който допълнително го издигна в очите ми.
Едно определение, ще използвам със сигурност от сега нататък , а именно - човек с нисък ръст , ще наричам вертикално предизвикан. Откакто го прочетох , не съм спряла да се забавлявам.

Коли ти не їдеш в Прованс (хоча й дуже цього хочеш), Прованс приходить до тебе. І то так відчутно, що майже вдихаєш запах лаванди, чуєш, як під подувом містралю шелестить листя на столітніх оливах, слухаєш скрип старих віконниць, відчуваєш смак доброго вина... Здавалося, читати "Ще один рік в Провансі", не прочитавши першої частини - дурна ідея. Ба ні, книга цілком самодостатня. І зачаровує з перших сторінок.
Це не путівник, хоча в ньому й можна знайти назви ресторанів із запаморочливою кухнею, імена кращих виноробів, сироварів, пекарів, торговців медом і трюфелями, адреси і графік роботи ринків, прізвища господарів найгостинніших апартементів. Але це схоже не на рекламу чи довідку, а на явки-паролі "для своїх".
Неймовірно атмосферна книга! На її сторінках оживають колоритні персонажі французьких містечок - такі, що хоч зараз бери і пиши "під них" роман. Тут анекдотичні історійки перемежовуються з розповідями про особливості різних аспектів життя у Провансі. Від Пітера Мейла ви можете вивчити фірмовий жест провансальців і дізнатися, де роблять найкращі ножі й ідеальні штопори. Ви відвідаєте найцікавіші локації - скажімо, парфюмерну школу для сліпих підлітків і садибу братів-антикварів, які рятують (і продають) найкрандіозніші артефакти минулого- цілі каміни, сходи, велетенські статуї і фрагменти будинків.
Прочитавши цю книгу, ви, скоріш за все, закохаєтеся. Можливо, ненадовго. Але мене, я знаю точно, мрія про Прованс відпустить не скоро.

After I read and thoroughly enjoyed Peter Mayle’s Provence (1991) and Toujours Provence (1992), I turned my attention to other readings, not knowing that a few years later (1999) , Mayle had completed a trilogy with Encore Provence, written after he and his wife had left their home in the south of France, and moved to southern California for few years. This delightful account of how they readjusted from California back to Provençal life lives up to the spirit and cultural observations of the first two books, plus has the added dimension of some interesting histories—for example of the city of Marseille and the nearby Château d’If, the olive oil and pâté de foie gras industries, and the lavender fields and perfume factories of Haute Provence. Mayle begins with a few comparisons of the fast-paced California life and the “rampant informality” of Americans to the slower gait of the Provençals as well as the typically French trait of discretion. “The French, it seems to me, strike a happy balance between intimacy and reserve” (9). Mayle notes that in Provence, “Life has not accelerated, but still dawdles along keeping time with the seasons. The markets still sell real food that has escaped the modern passions for sterilizing and shrink-wrapping. The countryside is still wild, and unscarred by golf courses, themes parks, or condominiums colonies. It is still possible to listen to silence,” Mayle assures us. “Unlike so many other beautiful parts of the world, which progress and ease of access have made noisy, predictable, and bland, Provence has managed to retain its individual flavor and personality” (84). He adds, however, that the residents of Provence have a few built-in prejudices, not only regarding foreigners, but also their own countrymen from Paris. “Despite being French, [Parisians] are regarded as foreign, and therefore, to be treated with suspicion and ridicule” (70). He also rebuts with good-humored sarcasm, an article by New York Times food critic who wrote that, alas, the old Provence of good, fresh food, no longer exists. Mayle gives his own lists of the best markets, wines, olive oil, honey, bread, pastries, goat cheese, etc., still available in the area well as comfortable and affordable accommodations in private houses, restaurants, etc., “To say that you can’t eat well here is nonsense,” he persists. “To say that you need to devote some time and effort to do it quite true. But that, so I’ve always believed, is part of the appreciation and true enjoyment of good food” (52). He mentions numerous amusing quirks about the Provençal people. For example, they still tolerate the old “Turkish” toilets—i.e., nothing more than a hole in the floor—even to the point of constructing sparkling brand new ones in that style. As with everything else about which they may be asked, the usual Provençal response is simply a shrug. Finally, Mayle recalls that he was blamed after the publication of his first two books for the influx of foreigners overrunning and ruining the ambiance of this charming part of France. He assures readers again that eleven years later, not much has really changed there. “Provence is still beautiful. Vast areas of it are still wild and empty. . . . The old men still play their endless games of boules, The markets are as colorful and abundant as ever. There is room to breath. The air is clean” (226). And, as always, there is no one more than Mayle who inspires me to plan an extended trip through Provence one day.

I was lucky enough to read the third installment of Peter Mayle's Provence trilogy in Provence itself recently. Not exactly in The Luberon though, we were staying in the slighty busier, more touristy part of Frejus but I'm not complaining, it's a beautiful place.
As with the first two books it's like curling up with an old friend, an old witty francophile friend that causes you to laugh out loud (very possibly startling nearby sun-worshippers)and teaches you something new each time you engage with it/him/her.
As far as I know this is the last one but I also know if another does come out I'll definitely be reading it. Equally I'll definitely be going back to Provence.

Another book of essays about living in Provence by Peter Mayle. Easy to read, easy to put down.
Some of the essays are really interesting, like the one about truffle growers and poachers and buyers. Some are less so, like the one about corkscrews.
I loved Mayle's first book, but this one kind of felt like he'd kept writing about Provence in order to make a living, which I completely understand, but I'd love for him to write another cohesive story rather than these collections.
As always, this book makes you want to go to France and eat (unless you're a vegetarian or vegan--if so, the chapters on foie gras would probably offend).

Where
felt like a Dear Diary and I loved it, Encore Provence feels more like a How To and I only liked it. Encore Provence really gets more specific, and detailed, and Provence loses a lot of its magic fairyland feel, becoming more of a Real Place. A Real Place I want to visit, no doubt, but not asap. I almost wonder if Mayle did this deliberately, to discourage people like me from visiting, and messing up his magic fairyland! If so, touche.

Харесвам Питър Мейл и третата част от поредицата му за Прованс ми допадна. Книгата е по-скоро пътепис, а не роман. Сборник от истории, написан с приятно чувство за хумор, усет към детайла, любов към храната и природата. Книга, която носи сетивна наслада и удоволствие.

While there were a couple of gems in this collection, it lacked the intimate and personalized nature of the first two books overall - it felt like more of a mishmash of disparate essays and sometimes like a travel guide for Provence.

Just as entertaining as his other Provence books.

With each of the Provence books, Peter Mayle has widened the scope of his observations. The first was the most personal, dealing with his home, his wife, and friends and contractors who became friends. In this third and final instalment Peter takes us on a tour of the industry of Provence, olive groves, lavender fields, truffle markets, and other non-personal but unique topics such as longevity and various towns and villages. These studies are more substantial than those in the second book and I enjoyed them much more.

After 'A year in Provence', this one dives even more into the fascinating culture and habits of the place. I particularly enjoyed the insights into the French language learning at the end of the book.

You’ve got Mayle!
Peter Mayle’s “Encore Provence” …the third novel in his Provence series. His books are always great fun; reading them is like going on vacation. In this installment of the series, Mayle (an Englishman by birth) writes about returning to Provence after a four year absence, when he and wife moved back to England. The novel - so vivid and rich in its explanation of the smallest detail of life in Provence - makes one yearn to be transplanted to that picturesque landscape.
The characters are true to life and wonderfully portrayed. As I made my way through its pages, Mayle’s cheeky humour (almost sarcastic at times) had me giggling surreptitiously on the bus this morning. What better way to start off a Friday morning? More to follow…including rating and reaction to the book in entirety.
Another success in non-fiction, Encore Provence is agile and amusing (aren’t all of Mayle’s works?). The author takes a bit of an off-the-path route in Encore, opting to focus more on tourist attractions and eating establishments, rather than chronicling his actual experiences with Provençal life. The book ventures beyond the confines of Provence and into the surrounding areas. Suffice it to say, it is more of a lavish tourist guide and less of a novel. Granted, it makes very agreeable reading. In my humble opinion, however, Encore doesn’t reach the brilliant apex of Mayle’s previous two masterpieces: A Year in Provence, and Toujour Provence, both of which I found equally enjoying. Regrettably, Encore definitely lacks the panache of its predecessors. Nonetheless, it’s redeeming qualities are still evident in it’s many entertaining anecdotes, and it’s indisputably informative pages when it came to “touristy” points of interest (to those who long to know the *real* Provence).

After perusing I find it is seven years since I read a bit of Peter Mayle during my summer vacation. That’s the best way to read Mayle, basking in the sun, alongside shimmering water. I read the chapter about food in Provence over a lunch of cold grilled/smoked chicken with salsa and chilled sliced tomatoes, it was delicious both prose and meal. My other fond passages were the ‘Unsolved Murder of the Handsome Butcher’, ‘Curious Reasons for Liking Provence’, ‘Eight Ways to Spend a Summer Afternoon.’ And then of course the essay entitled ‘A Beginner’s Guide to Marseilles’ the port city for which I was named. It has a very unsavory reputation and has very long time, so I still wonder why my father insisted I be named for it. Yet is was good to hear from Mayle that perhaps the reputation is more myth these days, because they had a lovely, if odd time, visiting there. I do have a few more Mayle books I haven’t yet read, but they are best saved for a future summer vacation, but hopefully it won’t be another seven years before a return to Provence.

These are some new stories after the author returned to Provence after several years in America. To my surprise, there is reference to Ruth Reichl of the New York Times (not a very pleasant impression from Ruth though), it's interesting because I'm a fan of Ruth Reichl's books too (but I only remember that fling in Paris :/)
This book has many charming moments but like Toujours Provence, it's not tightly bound around a timeline in A Year in Provence. The first book sounds more like "an adventure" to me with so many solid characters. I totally miss the glumy and earthy Faustin, the fabulous Monsieur Menicucci, the reclusive Massot, the amusing Benard...But they didn't make a comeback within these pages except for a mention of Faustin's father passing away of old age.
Without the lively intimacy and personalities that made A Year in Provence such a captivating book, Toujours and Encore sound like a a frayed collection of anecdotes and afterthoughts, but it's still nice to have them as companions. :)

Peter Mayle delivers again. I just read this on my South of France vacation and enjoyed it immensely. I'd already read "A Year in Provence" and "Toujours Provence" and I recommend reading those first. They are light reads, but highly entertaining, and Mayle has a knack for nailing the Provencial lifestyle. Numerous times as I was reading it, it seemed as though he were describing a situation I'd just encountered. Best read during or after a trip to Southern France.

I thoroughly enjoyed Mayle's A Day in Provence and Toujours Provence which I read several years ago. Encore Provence was just as good. It's about Mayle's experiences living in Provence (he's an Englishman). This one was written 10 years after the second book. This was written 12 years ago, but I'm looking forward to seeing what he describes. He has a delightful way of explaining his life and escapades in Provence. It's like you're sitting with him as he discusses them. Entertaining.
