Book review: Burgundy (A Year in the World)

I am continuing my journey in the wold, a journey guided by Frances Mayes. So after Spain, Portugal, Naples, Sicily, and Morocco (not covered here), the author is attempting to re-discover one of her favorite writers, Colette. Well, I must admit I had no idea who Colette was before reading this book, so at least I feel that I gained something, although the trip to Burgundy as described in the book lacks the depth of the first Andalucian chapter.

En bref, the author is taking us to Colette's childhook grounds and to the nearby towns, cities, and villages:

Auxerre
Autun
Vezelay
Burgundy
Beaune (wine town)
Saint Saveur
Dijon
Anjou
