“Pemphigus, acute necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis. The blisters in his oesophagus”
― When We Cease to Understand the World
― When We Cease to Understand the World
“Even French pilferage has not relegated Italian culinary genius to the darker corners of gastronomy. Marie de’ Medici brought Italian cookery to France, where Gallic duplicity quickly undermined the integrity of good ingredients with unctuous sauces. The French will always confuse egregious decorative effects with creative integrity. They have a genius for appearances. Trompe l’oeil will do for a Frenchman, but not for an Italian.”
