Book of the Week - May 2006
Pomegranate Soup by Marsha Mehran
For fans of Joanne Harris's "Chocolat" and Carol Field's "Mangoes and Quince", this foodie read is a must. Three sisters flee Iran to a small Irish town where they open "The Babylon Café" which soon becomes a thriving business. All is well until their past catches up with them... Some tempting recipes are also included, if you happen to get a bit peckish whilst enjoying this delicious read.
Tales of the Country by Brian Viner
Grab the gumboots and enjoy an hilarious romp through the English countryside with the author and his family who shift from London to a rambling grange, complete with three holiday cottages, in Herefordshire. A host of colourful characters and creatures fill the pages of this very entertaining, laugh-out-loud autobiography. | |
