The Novel of Burgundy (French edition) by François Cérésa

The Novel of Burgundy of François Cérésa is much more than a story: it is a true literary and sensory journey to the heart of a region where history, culture, and wine are intimately intertwined.

Born in Cannes but Bourguignon on his mother's side, the author draws on their memory and imagination to deliver a rich work, both Romantic and novelistic. You come across legendary figures and remarkable personalities: Bernard Loiseau, the iconic chef, My Uncle Benjamin, , d'Artagnan, but also the winemakers and artisans who bring Burgundy to life every day.

This book takes us on a journey through the landscapes and symbols of the region:

• Clos de Vougeot, a high place of Burgundy viticulture.

• The Churches of Brionnais, jewels of Romanesque art.

• The Companions of Duty, guardians of age-old traditions.

• The Museum of Fine Arts of Dijon, a showcase of masterpieces.

• The mysterious lands of the Morvan or of Cluny, rich in spirituality.

One also encounters unusual characters there: wizards and witches, popular heroes or legendary figures, which give the narrative a tone that is both smooth and mysterious.

François Cérésa's writing is direct, lively, full of images and flavors. Like a parsley ham accompanied by a glass of Pommard, his story is enjoyed with pleasure and curiosity.
