Peter Mayle (1939-2018) became a best-selling author with his memoir, “A Year in Provence.” He followed that up with several books about the French region, both fiction and non-fiction.
Richard Wolinsky interviewed Peter Mayle, on October 18, 1999, while he was on tour for his collection of essays, “Encore Provence,” his third non-fiction book set in that part of France.
An extended version of this interview can be found as a Radio Wolinsky podcast.
