This is the American author's account of 13 months spent in 'La France profonde' with his wife and young daughter. Unlike some other books of a similar genre, the people are real people, the places are real places, and the events are real events. It centres on a real restaurant, and describes the difficulties and successes of running a small business in rural France. We know this having lived nearby for over ten years.
