| Summary |
France bewitched Barbara Santich in the early 1970s. She vowed to return, and soon enough she did. This is the story of the magical 2 years that followed. Buoyed by naive enthusiasm, Barbara and her husband launched themselves into French village life, a world of winemaking, rabbit raising, cherry picking and exuberant 14 Juillet celebrations. |
