Title : The Mill of Springs - Françoise Bourdon - book
Summary :
Around a passionate and loyal woman, between shadow and light, secrets and traditions, the family saga of a line of Provençal papermakers.
Fontaine-de-Vaucluse, in 1840. From their first meeting, Timothée Viguier decreed that Noëlie would be his wife, and she herself knew that there would be no other man but him. Her father granted her hand without hesitation because the Viguiers had owned a prosperous paper mill on the banks of the Sorgue for several generations.
Thus begins for Noëlie a life woven with dramas and happiness, joys and sorrows, which will take her until the 1920s when, as an old lady almost a hundred years old, she will be able, by the sheer force of her loyalty, to save the ancestral mill by revealing what should have been kept silent.
In the footsteps of Petrarch, Françoise Bourdon takes us to Fontaine de Vaucluse for a journey filled with emotions and mysteries in an authentic Provence, radiant but bruised by the earthquake of 1909.
