From Peter Mayle, a wonderful new novel steeped in wine—and the business of wine?and set in, bien sûr, Provence.
Max Skinner is not exactly setting the London financial world on fire?and when his supervisor steals his biggest client, it’s definitely time to inspect the vineyard in Provence that his recently departed uncle left him. Heartily and happily distracted upon his arrival by the landscape, the weather, and the food?not to mention the gorgeous notaire handling the estate and the stunning owner of the local bistro?Max almost forgets about his inherited property.
Which might have been a good idea, because the wine produced there is swill. But then why, Max has to wonder, is his caretaker so anxious to acquire the land? When a beautiful young woman from California arrives with what might be a legitimate claim on the estate, and knowledge of vineyards that far outstrips Max’s own, the plot begins its twists and turns into and out of truly wonderful complications and resolutions.
This is luscious reading?soothing us with the sensual wonders of Provence while it tells a fascinating tale of the hugely lucrative and competitive boutique-wine trade. It is Peter Mayle’s most satisfying, most delectable novel yet.

能這樣,當然是最好的生活。在你窮睏潦倒的時候,突然有人告訴你你要繼承一個莊園。那裏有美酒、美食、美女。童話故事就這樣開始瞭。。。
評分原以為,以彼得·梅爾那樣慢慢悠悠的筆調,寫起小說大概會像散文,還沒開始,居然就結尾瞭。看瞭三分之一,發現多慮瞭。故事還挺有意思的:一個英國富二代來到普羅旺斯繼承叔叔的葡萄莊園,想在這裏開始新生活,卻遇到瞭頑固的普羅旺斯雇農、美艷陰險的公證人、什麼都要管的女...
評分輕鬆有趣的消閑讀物,幫助你瞭解葡萄的種植,紅酒的釀製,以及如何品酒。當然,還有美女相伴。普羅旺斯仿佛就像桃花源。 該書適閤閑暇時讀讀,改變成好萊塢電影應該也不錯。
評分現在,手邊就放著這本書。我在圖書館碩大無邊的書架上,一眼就相中瞭它:《一年好時光》。我想,這名字真是太貼閤我的腔調瞭。 PETER MAYLE——我讀第一頁,就被這個又仙又誠懇的老男人給迷得頭昏腦脹。他玩兒著長短句,用一種雲淡風輕的語氣描述MAX的跌宕人生,就像講一...

結尾有點莫名其妙 感覺有點像偵探故事。
評分A charming read for the afternoons.
評分稍許有些虎頭蛇尾。就著旅行的迴憶與電影的畫麵讀,還是很溫暖的。開篇對倫敦金融職場的描寫實實地戳中瞭職場屁民的點 :-P
