Our House Is Certainly Not In Paris - Plot & Excerpts
It is both a celebration of life in the village today and an honouring of days long ago. Loud music emanates every now and then to remind the village of our much-anticipated vide grenier. The festivities cater for everyone of every age and we discover too that the commune of Cuzance gathers in the outlying scattered hamlets of Baladou, Rignac and Lagarrigue. On the Sunday afternoon in the lead-up week to the most significant event in Cuzance’s annual calendar, a group of lycée students visit every maison. They are all wearing white T-shirts with j’aime Cuzance emblazoned in red. The attractive, lively students are selling Tombola tickets for two euro each. The first prize is: ‘1 Voyage de 4 jours pour de personnes de Espagne’. How exciting. Even I know that it means a trip for two to Spain for four days. The second prize is: ‘2 assiettes gourmande a la ferme de la Truffe’. Once again I am pleased that I know exactly what the prize is, a dinner for two at the local gourmet farm restaurant that specialises in truffles.
