«El perfume secreto del melocotón» is the contemporary fiction novel by Joanne Harris, published by Duomo in hardback (432 pages, in Spanish).
Vianne Rocher lives with her family on a houseboat on the Seine. A letter from her old friend Armande forces her to return to Lansquenet, the village where she ran a chocolate shop; now that shop is a school and the streets are marked by distrust. Even the parish priest, who no longer fears Vianne, asks for her help.
The book belongs to the Chocolat series, of which it is the third instalment; translation by Josep Escarré Reig.
For those who enjoyed Chocolat and want to reconnect with Vianne Rocher and the magical universe of Lansquenet.
Joanne Michèle Sylvie Harris is a British author, best known for her 1999 novel Chocolat, which was adapted into a film of the same name. Born in Barnsley, Yorkshire, of a French mother and a British father, she was a teacher of French for 15 years and had published three novels during this period before the surprise success of Chocolat enabled her to write full time. Since then she has written over 30 books in a number of genres, including fantasy, psychological thriller, novellas, short stories and non-fiction. Harris' books often feature themes of women's empowerment, folklore, motherhood, community, outsiders and outcasts, and food.
