Read the book as I liked the film by the same name. Preferred the book over the film and now have a slight distaste for the film after watching it again. It is similar and although the film is based on the book it is (spoiler alert)... different ... the book focuses on the wine & the film the character of Max. It was a compelling and enjoyable read finishing it within a few days throughly enjoying it and the writers style. So much that I purchased other novels by Peter Mayle. So recommended.

Peter Mayle, now sadly deceased, is one of my favourite authors. I have read most of his work since 'A Year in Provence' and this is one of the best. Pity that the film didn't capture some of the more devious aspects of the plot. This is not my first reading and will not be my last. A good book.
