Used book – Gustin plantefigues, Jean-Claude Libourel

Perched on its hill, the village of Courségudes has known a peaceful life since time immemorial, punctuated by pastis, pétanque, weddings and funerals. Modern times will burst in, first with the gourmet restaurant opened by Marie-Jeanne Plantefigues, then with a new road that will upset the balance of the land. But it is above all Gustin, the last descendant of the lineage, who will leave his mark on the village. Gustin is a taciturn big boy, ill-suited to reality. A film fanatic who dreams, wide awake, of his favorite actresses coming to sit near him. Is he capable of a true love story with the wise Fifine, a young girl from the village? Around Gustin, slowly but surely, everything will capsize... With this story, by turns funny and tragic, the author of Antonin Maillefer, winner of the Prix des Maisons de la Presse 1996, composes a delightful hymn to Provence, to the sun... and to love.
