Idle in Provence
£22.00
In 1971, two years after the launch of Monty Python’s Flying Circus made his comedy troupe global superstars – and made all their lives a little more complicated – Eric Idle decided to buy a ramshackle property in the south of France. In search of a simpler, quieter life, what followed was a story akin to ‘A Year in Provence’, but with more disaster, more heartbreak, more laughs – and much more spam. A tale spanning a fifty-year quest of home-building, friendship-making and bad-French-learning, ‘Idle in Provence’ is a hilarious, tender and unforgettable memoir of Eric Idle’s very own escape to the country.
