On Rue Tatin: The Simple Pleasures of a Small French Town (Revised)
On Rue Tatin: The Simple Pleasures of a Small French Town (Revised) | Susan Hermann Loomis
2 posts | 5 read | 7 to read
The second house that Susan Hermann Loomis looked at in the small town of Louviers was perfect. Dilapidated, rambling, crumbling walls which were covered with faded paper, it had been a convent. So Susan, her husband, who was luckily a sculptor and builder, and small son, moved in - to spend a year and more, rebuilding, finding new hidden treasures of their house, and discovering their neighbours, and the life of a small French town. Share in Susan Loomis' daily journeys: to the market, to the butcher and the baker, talking to the shop keepers and the teachers at the school, and meeting the clergy who tramp through their garden. As her son joins the local school, as Susan's cookery work gets underway, so the reader is part of all the human - and gastronomic - experiences that shape this very French town.

The tagged book was finished during tonight‘s Silent Book Club meeting at a new local bookstore/wine bar/coffee shop called Hooked. I love that we started up this book club again, reading whatever book we bring silently to ourselves. I recently started teaching French, so Tatin felt like a good choice. While Loomis can come across slightly grating, this book did make me want to move back to France. #Booked2022

JamieArc For includes a recipe. French cooking has always intimidated me, but several of these recipes look delicious AND doable, so I‘m excited to try them. 2y

JamieArc @EvieBee I really did enjoy it! It was fun learning how she built relationships with those in her small town. And I‘m excited to try some of the recipes. 2y
JamieArc @Cinfhen The bookstore opened about a year ago, I think, and they‘ve done a great job so far building a community space. And yes, cute mugs 😊 2y

I've got a couple of cheery books I'm considering next after a depressing read. Also always present are my iPad and Kindle for more reading scope. #OnTheNightstand #AprilBookShowers
