Emanuel’s Reviews > Two Dozen Eggs: Pocket Stories for Cooks > Status Update

"The next day I went to her flat to eat. She made ratatouille. I felt. I felt the food, the conversation, the night air coming in the window and the taste of the wine on my lips and the feeling of it in my belly. I had not felt for a long time. I listened to her and she listened to me. It was the beginning of love."

I had not felt in 105 pages either, after all those indifferent stories, finally, some emotion!

There's something very comforting about the stories, nothing special I'd day but I find them very sweet in their normal-ness.
