Laura Esquivel - Like Water For Chocolate
The number one bestseller in Mexico for almost two years, and subsequently a bestseller around the world, Like Water For Chocolate is a romantic, poignant tale, touched with moments of magic, graphic earthiness and bittersweet wit. A sumptuous feast of a novel, it relates the bizarre history of the all-female De La Garza family. Tita, the youngest daughter of the house, has been forbidden to marry, condemned by Mexican tradition to look after her mother until she dies. But Tita falls in love with Pedro, and in desperation he marries her sister Rosaura so that he can stay close to her. For the next 22 years Tita and Pedro are forced to circle each other in unconsummated passion. Only a freakish chain of tragedies, bad luck and fate finally reunite them against all the odds.
'If originality, a compelling tale and an adventure in the kitchen are what you crave, Like Water For Chocolate serves up the full helping' - San Francisco Chronicle
'This magical, mythical, moving story of love, sacrifice and simmering sensuality is something I shall savour for a long time' - Maureen Lipman
