Chasing Cezanne

Chasing Cezanne by Peter Mayle
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

So far really good and a quick read.  Is the Cezanne missing?  If yes, why?  Taken into the heart of the art world.  Mayle impresses the reader with his knowledge of various fields once again.

Quick read that kept me busy while lying in bed ill with all by body parts aching.  A photographer accidentally sees a Cezanne being moved from the home of a wealthy client into a van, and with his attempts to solve the mystery of this strange scene, he interacts with varied characters, encounters he wrath of several rich and influential people, and travels through France, Britain and the USA.  A fun read, especially if you want to read more about the wonderful food and wines found in Southern France.  I need to have one of those eating trips through France!
