Vianne

Joanne Harris sensationally returns to the world of CHOCOLAT, with the long-awaited and utterly irresistible story of Vianne Rocher. Perfect for fans of Maggie O'Farrell and Sarah Winman.

So wise, so atmospheric, so beautifully written

I sobbed at the end because I couldn't bear to leave...One of the world's finest storytellers

Haunting, obsessive and just a little nutty, like a freshly-made praline

Mouthwatering...your senses are left reeling

Sheer pleasure from start to finish

Sensuous and thought-provoking

I devoured it in one go

A place of magic and mysteries

A novel that shimmers with brilliance and truth

Is this the best book ever written? Truly excellent
