by Runcie, James


  PRAISE

  ‘A sensual delight … elegantly written and unashamed fun’

  JOANNE HARRIS

  ‘As intoxicating and addictive as the substance it describes. The novel is a triumph of inspired imagination’

  Financial Times

  ‘A work of engaging simplicity which reads well, has plenty of light and shade and never patronises the reader. The potent appeal of chocolate … is vividly captured. Mouth-watering descriptions of food litter the text’

  Sunday Telegraph

  ‘His treasure of a book, fantastic and delicious and dreamily erotic by turns, will transmute your yearning for the bitter water into a craving from which you will, quite happily, never recover’

  SIMON WINCHESTER, author of The Surgeon of Crowthorne
