Letters from My Windmill by Alphonse Daudet
"Letters from My Windmill" by Alphonse Daudet is a collection of short stories published in 1869. Written in first person, these tales follow the author's move from Paris to Provence, where he recounts bucolic stories of southern French life, local folktales, and journeys to Corsica and Algeria. The stories blend pity, tenderness, and sadness with gaiety and mockery, painting an affectionate portrait of Provençal culture. Considered by many to be Daudet's most
important work, this collection remains beloved in France. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
