From Hyères and St. Tropez in the west to the Italian border in the east, Ted Jones introduces the lives and work of writers who passed this way, from distinguished Nobel laureates to new authors who discovered their voices there. His encyclopaedic work covers them all: writers such as Graham Greene and W. Somerset Maugham, who spent much of their lives there; F. Scott Fitzgerald and Guy de Maupassant, whose work it dominates; and the countless writers who simply lingered there, including Louisa M. Alcott, Albert Camus, Bruce Chatwin, T. S. Eliot, Ian Fleming, Sylvia Plath, Jean-Paul Sartre, Leo Tolstoy, Evelyn Waugh, Oscar Wilde -- and countless others. </p> <p> <strong>Details:<br /> </strong>Title: The French Riviera: A Literary Guide for Travellers<br /> Publisher: Tauris Parke Paperbacks<br /> Pub. date: Jan. 8, 2008<br /> Author: Ted Jones<br /> Paperback; 264 pages <br /> List price: $15.95<br /> ISBN-10: 1845114558 <br /> ISBN-13: 978-1845114558 </p> http://moreintelligentlife.com/node/617#comments Furthermore France French Riviera Tauris Sun, 25 Nov 2007 03:48:43 +0000 Natasha Yefimova 617 at http://moreintelligentlife.com
