Five Quarters of the Orange

Beyond the main street of Les Laveuses runs the Loire, smooth and brown as a sunning snake but hiding a deadly undertow beneath its moving surface. This is where Framboise, a secretive widow named after a raspberry liqueur, plies her culinary trade at the creperie and lets her memory play strange games. Into this world comes the threat of revelation as Framboises nephew a profiteering Parisian attempts to exploit the growing success of the country recipes she has inherited from her moth er, a woman remembered with contempt by the villagers of Les Laveuses. As the spilt blood of a tragic wartime childhood flows again, exposure beckons for Framboise, the widow with an invented past.Upozornenie: Vzhľadom na častejšie obmeny vydaní tejt o knihy v zahraničí, kus, ktorý vám zašleme, nemusí mať rovnakú obálku ako je zobrazená tu.
