I'd start in the local tavern.

I'd start with Marcel Proust's À la recherche du temps perdu. You also can't say you've really researched the countryside without reading Men of Goodwill by Jules Romains and Artamène ou le Grand Cyrus by Georges and/or Madeleine de Scudéry. And those are just the three obvious ones off the top of my head.
