I've been reading alot of good books lately and the bad writing and ponderous plot and two dimensional characters just jangled my nerves. I think I probably thought of this as an okay beach read style book but it was more of a painful slog. I think at least 200 pages could have been cut with no loss at all. I have another Noel Barber on my shelf but I think I will let it go and move onto something I would enjoy more. An interesting historic novel set predominantly in France, but also in Switzerland, United Kingdom and United States of America. One gets a real sense of knowing the family characters, and of all the wonderful and terribly times they lived through during is sad period of French history. There is much factual reference to people, places and events throughout the occupation of France by Germany, and many passages of graphic detail of the horrors of war, but these are contrasted by the beautifully descriptive passages of family life, set in the family chateau and productive vineyard, where much of the book is located. This is another good read. A love that grew in the days before the outbreak of WWII.How Nazi-Germany threatened France and finally triumphed.A magnificent epic,played out under the tumultous background of that time.A decadent French government and the life of a foreign corresponent,the champagne region and the final success of the French Resistance. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
Sonia Riccardi, impetuous and sensual, was a woman no man could resist. And Larry Astell, heir to a champagne fortune, knew their passion was the most important part of his life. Until war placed in jeopardy all they held dear - love, family and country. From the Left Bank of the 1930s to Nazi-occupied Paris, A FAREWELL TO FRANCE is a magnificent epic, played out against the tumultuous background of the time: a decadent French government, the life of a foreign correspondent, the grandeur of the champagne regions and the glory of the French Resistance.
