HOTEL PASTIS

This newest novel by Peter Mayle is once again set in rural France. The story centers around the adventures of three characters who are building and opening a hotel. Tangled up with the main plot are a bank robbery, a kidnapping and a Mafia hit man. Tim Pigott-Smith narrates this light-hearted tale, providing accents for all the characters. The British accents are very clear, the French light and understandable. Presented in an even-paced tone, lazy with the relaxed atmosphere of rural life, this tale is a nice change from hustle and bustle. Warm up your tape deck and prepare for an unusual adventure in the country. M.B.K. ©AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: MAR 94]
