"Marcel Pagnol, more than a writer, more than a scriptwriter and producer, became through his works, a sort of Universal Grand-father for every French ! His Provencal trilogy (La Gloire de mon père, Le Chateau de ma mère, le Temps des secrets - later completed with Le Temps des amours) is part of the « savoir-vivre » of us all. This exclusive recording is the reading, by Pagnol himself, of his main work « La Gloire de mon père », in a 4 CD box set, recorded in the 1960's and previously unreleased. In French."
