(Book). Prue Leith played a leading role in the revolution of
Britain's eating habits. Having published twelve highly acclaimed
cookbooks, and held the ladle at her own gold standard bistro, she
surrendered herself to her own secret passion: Culinary Fiction.
This is the first of three Prue Leith novels to inaugurate the Opus
Culinary Fiction series. The mysterious juices of life intermingle
with Leith's characters' creative harvests and subtle sauces. Kate,
a successful caterer to the posh Parliament crowd, inadvertently
caters to the pleasures of Britain's Secretary of State, and
uncovers her deepening understanding that each life must be a
hybrid if it is to survive; substitutions must be part of the
expectation; nothing is in season forever. Improvisation isn't just
an escape route; its labyrinthine route is the main highway. There
is no one recipe not even great sex which will be news to many
readers that will keep a relationship fresh. And there are days
when going off impromptu to fly a kite takes precedence over the
sanctity of beef and Yorkshire pudding. Just when you think your
larder is stale and it's time to unplug and compost, a friend a
transplant from another world will explain that this is merely an
opportunity for chutney.
