5.0 out of 5 stars
An immersive and memorable continental tour, Jun 13 2003
By Midwest Book Review - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Pleasures and Landscapes: A Traveller's Tales from Europe (Paperback)
Pleasures And Landscapes: A Traveller's Tales From Europe engagingly recounts the experiences and observations of Sybille Bedford. The format is that of a one woman travelogue as Bedford traveled through France, Italy, Portugal, Yugoslavia, and other European countries and wrote travel articles for Vogue, Esquire and other magazines. Vivid, chatty, with an insightful eye for the human condition that transcends borders and nationalities, Pleasures And Landscapes is an immersive and memorable continental tour which is especially recommended for dedicated armchair travelers!

Mouthwatering, Feb 5 2008

As usual wonderful writing from Sybille Bedford. If you're into food and wine this is for you. If not leave it alone.
But do try to read one of her other books.
