Two Towns in Provence

Map of Another Town and a Considerable Town

by M. F. K. Fisher


Review this book!

MAP OF ANOTHER TOWN is a memoir of Aix-en-Provence as it used to be, when Fisher lived there in the '50s. A CONSIDERABLE TOWN is an appreciation of Marseilles and the ways it has changed and remained the same, from ancient days to the 1970s, when Fisher wrote this entertaining essay.

Media Reviews

"It's difficult to pick out just one favorite travel book....But if I had to pick just one favorite, it wouldn't exactly be a travel book, but rather a 'being there' book--and that is 'Two Towns in Provence' by M.F.K. Fisher....She has very evocative ways of describing things, and her sense of place is extraordinary. One of the lessons she taught me is that it's the little details that add credibility."
