Publisher Description
The Hexagon (L’Hexagone), a name commonly used by the French to refer to their country, derives from its six-sided cartographic outline. In June 2000, my wife Jo and I bought a secondary residence in a ‘little known Languedoc port’ called Marseillan. This book describes the evolution of our on-off visits to this region, as well as some of the town’s local inhabitants and traditions, up to the time of our return to Australia in 2017. Trips to France, made by the author as a student of French in the 1950s/1960s, add up to the ‘score’ (of years) mentioned in the title. A chapter is included giving the author’s selective ‘take’ on France and the French.
