365 Days in France Calendar 2002 [Wall Calendar] [Calendar]

Patricia Wells (Author), Steven Rothfeld (Photographer)

Book Description

Publication Date: August 1, 2001

The magic of France: LubEron. Vaucluse. Normandy. The magic in the details: the allEes of plane trees, impeccable potagers, the sweep of distant ch,teaux. For a Francophile, 365 DAYS IN FRANCE is like slipping on a pair of well-worn espadrilles and strolling along the rocky Mediterranean shoreline-breathing in the heady mixture of earth, sea, sky, history, and romance that says, with every step, this is where you were meant to be.

Photographed by Steven Rothfeld and with text by Patricia Wells, author of Bistro Cooking and The Food Lover's Guide to Paris, 365 DAYS IN FRANCE is a sumptuous look at France, and a paean to its subtleties, its pleasures, its colors, its soul.

4.0 out of 5 stars My favorite wall calendar, November 13, 2001

For two years running, this calendar has served me well. One month spans two oversized pages and focuses on a particular region in France. Wells' text is brief but charming. The cover accurately illustrates the typical assortment of Rothfeld's photographs -- in size, number, and breadth of topic -- that adorn each and every month. Still, generous room is allotted each day for noting appointments, recitals, and what have you. Holidays span US, UK, Canada, Australia along with major Christian and Hebrew holy days. One star off for the lack of moon phases.

I've been buying this calendar now for about 4 years. The first time I bought it the pictures were new to me, of course. And the layout looked very French. But now, it seems it's the same old photos with a more modern layout. Don't get me wrong, the photos are pretty, some cliche. And the months and days are where they should be. But maybe it needs to get a little more gritty and less pretty?
