Description
The centre of Argens Minervois ... a black cat guards the entrance to the council hub ... the junior school is to the left ... empty now and quiet ... holidays prevail ... no sounds of children ... just distant echoes up and down the vacant streets. A small vineyard sits trapped in its own cage ... but beyond the furthest line of dwellings and outhouses is the cemetery ... immaculate ... incredible ... Ancient Roman arches, and dutiful women changing the flower tokens of life and love ... the sound of men at boules, rising over the enclosing limestone barricade ... noise outside ... memories within.
