FINE* Illustrations: None.* Pages: 432 pp. text.* Product Description:- These two works by the author of ?Jean de Florette? and ?Manon of the Springs.? are also autobiographical, covering his early childhood in rural Provence and later at school in Marseilles. The ?Time of Secrets? was published during the author?s lifetime but ?The Time of Love? was only taken to press posthumously. They have been hailed as Pagnol?s masterpieces. Gentle and evocative, Pagnol is said to have done for Provence what Flora Thompson and Laurie Lee did for their corners of Middle England.* This is a NEAR FINE copy of the 1st. combined edition with minimal shelf wear.*
