Balzac's Omelette: A Delicious Tour of French Food and Culture with Honore'de Balzac Hardcover - 2011
by Anka Muhlstein
Balzac uses food and the art of the table as a connecting thread in his novels, showing how food can evoke character, atmosphere, class, and social climbing more suggestively than money, appearances, and other more conventional trappings. Full of surprises and insights, "Balzac's Omelet" invites readers to taste anew Balzac's genius as a writer.
