Thank you so much for sharing your books with me. It arrived today and I am looking forward to reading it.

the life story of the novel's main character, Hassan Haji, is the focus of Richard Morais' story. That theme is Hassan's unrelenting pursuit of his destiny which is guided (though behind the scenes by Madame Mallery. His roots were those of a pre-WW11 Indian family of poor Muslim subsistence farmers. His journey culminated many decades later when the restaurant he created in rural France achieved the recognition and honor of earning 3 Stars. The author's obvious love of food is passionately sprinkled, chopped and poured throughout.

I could have put the book down at any time. It did not compel me to read.

Received today, thanks!

Found this to be a pleasant read that kept me going back for more. It was kind of fun but unremarkable at the same time? We had already seen the movie before I read it, and I was surprised at how the ending was rearranged in the movie - in a way the same things happened, but to different people.
