Combining the gifts of a poet and story-teller, Christensen creates a vivid picture of Provence. He is charmed with the beauty of the land, by the fact that food, drink, sex, and are honored there as "part of God's plan.

A reviewer describes Strangers in Paradise as a book for those who have "longed to spend a summer in the French countryside" or "even considered such an escape." But the book is far more than this-it is about a family's immersion in another culture, about how outsiders become insiders, and about comparative cultural values.

This book came to me as a gift. It had never occurred to me that I'd want to see Southern France.
