Monsieur Perdu is back!

In this new novel from Nina George we return to Jean Perdu's beautiful barge on the Seine, his Literary Apothercary. He's spent many years still prescribing just the right book for his customers in the exact time they need it. His beloved books are his medicine: books that will comfort, guide, envelop and the perfect book to the customer that he know will guide them.

But now, dear reader, he's sharing his favourite novel with you. As his floating bookshop arrives in the soft lights of Provence, Perdu shares the book that has healed him, brought him happiness, anchored him and shown him his way in life. It is comfort and safety in book form, a novel about love, the magic of balmy nights in the Mediterranean and the often unseen good in people.

PRAISE FOR NINA GEORGE Glowing...layered with wit, enchanting writing and a love of books...I prescribed it for a cynical friend who has "seen it all" (and read it all) and she swooned' A true gem for fiction lovers A charming tale...for fans of Like Water for Chocolate and Amelie An enchanting, uplifting read...the sort of book that acts as a soothing tonic as you read - so the perfect accompaniment to relaxing in the sun Brimming with magic . . . Full of allegory and mysticism, the book often feels more like a poem than a novel. Nuanced and enchanting . . . an elegantly crafted, unhurried examination of the enthralling and elusive nature of love An appealing companion piece to The Little Paris Bookshop. George convincingly portrays her charactersโ€™ emotions . . . Charming This spin-off of Georgeโ€™s beloved The Little Paris Bookshopโ€”this is the book within that oneโ€”is narrated by omniscient and powerful representations of abstract concepts, with Love, Pride, and Fate all weighing in, and this creative framing adds to its considerable charm. George pays particular attention to the romantic potential of the everydayโ€”those mundane events that can spark new feelings in anyone hoping for a chance at love. Fans will adore Georgeโ€™s latest exploration of life, love, and destiny What a joy to read The Little French Village of Book Lovers, which will delight Nina Georgeโ€™s millions of readers. Exquisitely written, as always, she draws you in from the first page and immerses you in the lives of her delightful characters. You wonโ€™t want to put it down. Expand reviews
