Freedom Fries and Cafe Creme by Jocelyne Rapinac
Most of the characters in this edible story collection are looking for love, even if some of them don't know it. But what they do all share is a delight in great food, which they know can feed the soul and bring joy to life - often more so than love.'Part short story collection and part recipe book, Jocelyne Rapinac delivers an innovative debutEssentially, the book comprises of twelve short stories, one for each month of the year, that are connected by a focus on food and love, with accompanying recipes for dishes mentioned in each chapter; something like a culinary soundtrack to the book. The stories themselves deal with love in all its forms but arguably the collection is more a love letter to food ... [Rapinac's stories] deal with larger issues such as globalisation, human connection and obesity that make them fables for modern life' New Books Magazine
