LoveReading Says

Into a small rural French village comes a mysterious woman, Vianne, her young daughter and the child’s invisible rabbit.  They open a chocolate shop opposite the church.  It is Lent and a strange war breaks out between the church and the shop.  In alternating chapters between the priest and Vianne we are given views of good and evil, temptation and righteousness and a thought-provoking story unfolds.  This is quite delicious, all of it – the villager’s and their secrets, the Frenchness of it all and the chocolate.  A far greater book than the film.

 

A "Piece of Passion" from the publisher...

‘I’ve always believed you can’t go wrong with love and chocolate: and this deliciously has both. This is a novel which is totally irresistible, because it works on so many different levels: there’s the lovely  French setting, the sensuousness of the food and  the seriousness of the underlying themes, mixed with a dash of magic, a pinch of ancient wisdom, plus gentle humour and a clear-eyed insight into the most repressed of emotions.  Joanne Harris has gone on to write a whole string of bestsellers, often sensuous, sometimes chilling, always surprising – but Chocolat remains the one she is best-known for, and most-loved, too.' Marianne Velmans, Publishing Director at Transworld
