Paperback. Condizione: New. While swimming off the coast of Essex, enjoying 'a sense of being in a great sun-drenched place', two men find themselves struck by memories of time spent in France in their youth. Here they recall their experiences, from grape-picking in Bordeaux to job-hunting in Paris and finding a way of truly experiencing its way of life, all the while evoking a sense of their carefree optimism. 'The incidents and experiences [the authors] relate are very sympathetic to me, and induce a measure of nostalgia.' - Quentin Blake.
