Tales from the Pays D'Oc by Patricia Feinberg Stoner ** Blog Tour Spotlight**
Twenty-one tales of life, love and laughter in the land of
sun and vines.
What is Matthieu doing up an olive tree? Why won’t Joséphine ever eat pizza
again? Who went four by fourth? And who
rescued two hapless Americans at Armageddon Falls?
Travel to the Languedoc, feel the scorch of the sun on your
shoulders, smell the dust and the lavender and the ripening grapes and follow
the adventures of the Saturday Club and the regulars at l’Estaminet.
In this collection of stories, Patricia Feinberg Stoner
revisits the territory of her memoir, ‘At Home in the Pays d’Oc’ with a whole
host of new and familiar characters.
About the Author
Patricia Feinberg Stoner is a former journalist, advertising
copywriter and publicist. For four years she and her husband were accidental
expatriates in the Languedoc, southern France.
During that time she wrote a series of magazine articles which eventually
became her first book about the Languedoc: ‘At Home in the Pays d’Oc.’
Now back in the UK, she lives with her husband in the pretty
West Sussex village of Rustington, where Michael Flanders encountered a gnu and
the mobility scooter is king.
She spends much of
her time writing short stories and comic verses. Her first book, ‘Paw Prints in
the Butter’, is a collection of comic poems for cat lovers, and is sold in aid
of a local animal charity. In 2017 she
published her second book of comic verse: ‘The Little Book of Rude Limericks’.
In the autumn of 2018 Patricia returns to the locale of ‘At
Home in the Pays d’Oc’ with a new collection of stories: ‘Tales from the Pays
d’Oc’.
Patricia welcomes visitors to her Facebook page Paw Prints in the Butter and to her blog www.paw-prints-in-the-butter.com.
