Literary Nonfiction. Aimed at the more discerning gourmand, EDIBLE PLEASURES offers an irresistible guide to the unbreakable bond between food and love. From the poetic to the philosophical, the absurd to the abstruse, indulge in scientific, gastronomic and cultural histories, accompanied by an A-Z of aphrodisiacs with a side order of seductive recipes. Lovingly combining delicacies from The Taste of a Kiss by Martial to Madame Pompadour's Asparagus Tips, by way of South Park's "Salty Chocolate Balls," EDIBLE PLEASURES is the definitive textbook on food, passion, love and desire.
