Installed in a restored wing of an ancient priory, Maureen and Charlie - her Australian-born poodle - enter into the routines and rituals of the small, rural town of Espagnac- St-Eulalie. Together Maureen and Charlie discovered a completely different pace of life, a stunning landscape and a dramatic turn of the seasons. They discovered too a culinary hotspot with cheeses that had Charlie literally dancing, and table fare that converted a near-vegetarian author into a lover of game and even foi-gras. But Val-Paradis changed much more than that...Explore the French countryside, meet new friends and share some time with a charming, unpredictable poodle in Maureen Cashman's delightful, insightful and gently humorous tale of life in paradise.","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43982293958875,"sku":"9780731813674-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/products\/9780731813674-us-300.jpg?v=1677495835","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9780731813674-secondhand-charlie-and-me-in-val-paradis","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
